As of March 2013, HIV is not curable but it can be treated and managed to the point that most infected individuals can live relatively normal lives for an extended period of time while infected.
Recently a baby from Mississippi was declared cured of HIV after being infected by her mother during the birth process; the baby was started on antiretroviral medication very shortly after birth but the drugs were discontinued after a period of time. However, the child has still not shown viral replication within her body, although traces of the virus can still be found.
