Timothy Ray Brown is believed to be the only person ever to be cured of the AIDS causing virus, HIV.<br /><br />Once known as "The Berlin Patient", Brown was cured when doctors attempting to cure his luekemia infection, which he was additionally diagnosed with, unintentionally used the bone marrow of a donor with a rare gene mutation. <br /><br />Brown's cells have been HIV-resistant ever since, but this also brought him unintended celebrity. <br /><br />Feeling a sense of responsibility towards others still infected, he now spreads his story and allows his body to continually be tested to further HIV/AIDS research.<br /><br />Al Jazeera's Kimberly Halkett reports from Washington.
