The AIDS virus mutates too quickly. As seen in the so called new "Super AIDS" that is immune to many modern treatments of the disease.

We honestly still don't have a great handle on viruses in general, not just AIDS. Herpes, warts, HIV AIDS, Hep C, the Flu, Rabies - there are lots of virus-based diseases that we can't cure. In fact, I'm curious whether you are referring only to non-viral diseases when you say "we found cures for many diseases and STDs" or if you lump vaccinations into "cures." The truth is, we really can't cure very many The "best" way that we have to fight viruses right now is to create a vaccine - which really just tricks your body into fighting the disease itself. There are some antiviral drugs out there, but (from what I can tell) most of the antiviral drug research that we have done is BECAUSE of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Good question.
