Doctors say that a South African boy diagnosed with HIV has gone into remission from the virus without a regular drug treatment. The 9-year-old was put in a 40-week course of antiretrovirals when he was one month old, but did not take drugs after that. Doctors suspect that the reason why he seems to have beaten the virus is because he received an aggressive treatment right after the infection occurred. The boy’s case is the third ever reported of a person controlling an HIV infection without drugs. "By studying these cases, we hope we will understand how one can stop (treatment)," said the child’s doctor, Avy Violari, who works at the Perinatal HIV Research Unit at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa. – CNN

The world’s oldest known manatee died on Sunday in an accident in an aquarium in South Florida. Snooty died a day after his 69th birthday, when he got stuck in a hatch in the tank he shared with three other manatees.

Following a population rebound in recent years, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service downgraded the protection status of the manatee in May from "endangered" to "threatened." – GUARDIAN

The parents of the terminally-ill British baby Charlie Gard have decided to end a legal battle to take him to the U.S. for experimental treatment. Tests show that the 11-month-old suffers irreparable muscular damage and taking him abroad will no longer be in "Charlie's best interests," said his parents, Connie Yates and Chris Gard. The couple fought a legal battle for five months to take their son, who suffers from a rare condition called mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome, to the U.S. In April, a judge in London ruled that doctors could stop providing life-support treatment for Charlie, a decision that was later appealed by his parents. – INDEPENDENT
