Shortly after HIV sterilizing cure trials transplanted allogenic stem cell in participants, with well over a thousand times the fatal risk of SARS-Cov-2 infection in healthy young participants [17, 18] , AIDS activist David Evans interviewed the participants of these risky trials and concluded, "We should recognize their great capacity to understand the risks they may confront as research participants and, after a careful ethical and scientific review, respect the motivations of those who decide that the benefits of knowing that their contributions may help others outweighs the risks" [19] .
