Usage of "even" in multiple positions

earlier today, i read a sentence that said :

This medication can even cure HIV.

the context was very simple, the medication has many uses to the point it could cure a currently incurable disease, however, shouldn't it be rewritten as "this medication can cure even HIV" to stress the fact that it is capable of doing that ? i looked "even" up and most use it straight after the word "can", is that the only grammatically correct case ?
