as the fi nest weapon of the HIV.
It is also interesting to note how the outcome of this
evolutionary dynamics is totally driven by chance. In Figure
69 and Figure 70, different simulation outcomes from the same
initial conditions are shown. Some of them progress to the AIDS
phase in a few years (short-term progressors in Figure 69) while
other have a slower evolution (long-term progressors in Figure
70). A quick progression does not necessarily mean a ‘longer’
evolution (i.e., the accumulation of more bit-mutations).
Instead, a winning strategy for the virus appears to be avoiding ...
