That the drug companies work to hold the HIV = AIDS hypothesis in place is understandable given that they are businesses, not benevolent entities, and profit tremendously from anti-HIV drugs used in the "war" against AIDS. Even when they lower prices or "give away" their products.

Most doctors don't have the time or incentive to consider that two decades of AIDS practices may be wrong, and researchers are beholden to the systems that fund their work. These systems, which in large part involve the pharmaceutical industry, do not honour questioning or testing of the HIV hypothesis and, in many cases, actively prohibit this.

AIDS - The 'Lucrative Disease: Ju Lynn Ong

The AIDS cause is no longer a fringe movement. It has become mainstream. The cause now belongs to governments, world leaders and corporate people. From a marginalised movement championed by gay activists in America, it has become a multibillion dollar industry supporting research institutions, governments, NGOs and pharmaceuticals.

AIDS Is Not A Death Sentence: Gary Null

The medical and scientific communities, aided and abetted by the mainstream media, have declared that people with the HIV antibody are a step away from developing AIDS (defined as the presence of HIV along with any one of 26 established diseases). That's the sentence of death. Once a person is diagnosed with AIDS, the medical establishment- and most of the public at large-believes he or she will die. There's nothing left to do for the dying but hand out prescriptions for such toxic drugs as AZT, DDl, or DDC.

The Human Factor In AIDS: Patricia Nell Warren

A young friend of mine decided to get tested for the first time. The test said he was positive. As I watched what he went through, I got a single searing snapshot of how deeply one person can be impacted by the heavy AIDS propaganda that bombards us every day.

Federal AIDS treatment research has concentrated almost exclusively on stopping HIV. The plain truth is that the all eggs in the one anti retroviral basket approach of federal researchers has produced little of value for people with HIV and AIDS. This is at the expense of serious research into preventing opportunistic infections and correcting non HIV related immune defects

As each of these drugs became the treatment of choice for a wide range of HIV+ people, its mass prescription was heralded with a flurry of claims and corresponding accounts of spectacular benefits. These phenomena diminished somewhat as large numbers of patients found they could not "tolerate" the drugs, as side-effects became more widely known, as independent tests failed to confirm, or contradicted, initial claims, and as patients failed to recover their health or, after an initial rally, died.

Protease Inhibitors In Provincetown: John Lauritsen

Dr Kary Mullis won the Nobel Prize in Science for inventing the PCR. With regard to viral load tests, which attempt to use PCR for counting viruses, Mullis has stated: "Quantitative PCR is an oxymoron." PCR is intended to identify substances qualitatively, but by its very nature is unsuited for estimating numbers. Although there is a common misimpression that the viral load tests actually count the number of viruses in the blood, these tests cannot detect free, infectious viruses at all; they can only detect proteins that are believed, in some cases wrongly, to be unique to HIV. The tests can detect genetic sequences that are from viruses, or theorized to be so, but not viruses themselves.

Fear OF Losing HIV: Bob Findle

Bob Findle discusses the consequences of letting go of the HIV=AIDS=DEATH paradigm in a community under siege by AIDS organisations and pharmaceutical objective

There isn't enough of a health detachment among the public, the media, and the HIV theory with all its implications, to make room for a rational debate on this issue. When AIDS was taken on by the media and by AIDS organizations, it was endowed instantaneously with a set of political, social, and moral implications, and an extraordinary righteousness set in, a fervor so sure of itself that it refused to tolerate any questions.

Upon examination, some of the terms of "AIDS-speak" appear to deliberately obscure the facts. Calling HIV "the AIDS virus" implies, for example, that there is no doubt that HIV causes AIDS. "The AIDS epidemic" implies that AIDS is spreading at an uncontrollable rate, though not all agree: The number of new AIDS cases grows slowly each year, a fact not widely trumpeted by the media or any of the country's 16,000 AIDS organizations.

Would it be overly cynical to propose that we have on our hands an industry that is devoted not so much to the fulfilment of its goal - which would lead to its dissolution - as to its own self-perpetuation?

AIDS: Scientific or Viral Catastrophe Part 1:

Neville Hodgkinson

Despite more than $100 billion spent on AIDS by US taxpayers alone, scientists have not been able to ascertain how HIV causes the AIDS syndrome. Predictions about the course of the epidemic have also proved inaccurate.

AIDS Catastrophe Part 2: Neville Hodgkinson

To escape embarrassment over their failed predictions, AIDS experts have argued that anti-viral drug treatments are responsible for the decline in AIDS. This is hard to reconcile with the fact that the decline started well before the more recent drug treatments were introduced; or with the unsatisfactory record of these treatments.

Why An HIV Test May Not Provide Proof Positive:

The Pharmaceutical Drug Racket: Part One

Describes the poisonous nature of pharmaceutical drugs, their devastating affects on our health and economy, and the powerful interests behind this deadly industry.

Another result is the inevitable deterioration of public health. According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 1.5 million Americans were hospitalised in 1978 as a consequence of taking drugs and some 30 per cent of all hospitalised people are further damaged by their treatments. Every year, an estimated 140,000 Americans are killed because of drug taking and one in seven hospital beds is taken up by patients suffering from adverse drug reactions.

Less AIDS And Death Than Predicted By Experts: Positively Healthy UK

UK statistics have confounded medical experts by confirming that since 1982 only 33% of HIV positives have developed AIDS  and only 25% have died. This will shock and delight people living with HIV who were presented with opinions since the start of the AIDS epidemic claiming that there would be 100% fatality within a short period of diagnosis who can now claim it's 'all lies, damned lies and statistics'

The Biggest Pushers Of All: John Le Carr

"The pharmas are engaged in the systematic corruption of the medical profession, country by country There has been a steady trickle of alarming cases in recent years where inconvenient scientific findings have been suppressed or rewritten, and those responsible for them hounded off their campuses with their professional and personal reputations systematically trashed by the machinations of public relations agencies in the pay of the pharmas."

Think Harm Always: British Medical Journal

Every intervention by a doctor, even a throwaway comment or a test "just to be sure," carries the potential for harm, whereas many of those interventions have no possibility of bringing benefit. This long overdue theme issue explores some of the many ways in which health care might result in harm.

Money changes everything, and the fight against AIDS is no exception. One of the central issues surrounding the fight against AIDS has always been if, how, or to what degree the pharmaceutical industry is pulling the strings of the medical community, AIDS organizations, and even the medical journals that depend on its advertising.

A classic ethical conundrum in our capitalist society is how to regard the flow of funds and its potential impact of the flow of information - why do corporations place their money where they do? When does a gift become a bribe? These questions have recently arisen in the world of AIDS politics due to reports that Burroughs Wellcome Co. has contributed large sums of money to key AIDS organizations

Is US Health Really The Best In The World?

Information concerning the deficiencies in US health care have been accumulating: 12 000 deaths a year from unnecessary surgery;; 7000 deaths a year from medication errors in hospital; 20 000 deaths a year from other hospital errors; 80 000 deaths from nonsocomial hospital infections; 106 000 deaths from adverse effects of medication

"The pain, dysfunction, disability, and anguish resulting from technical medical intervention now rival the morbidity due to traffic and industrial accidents and even war-related activities, and make the impact of medicine one of the most rapidly spreading epidemics of our time."

Conflict Of Interest In Clinical Trials: Vera Hassner Sharav

Conflicts of interest have corrupted the soul of the American university, the ethics of medicine, the integrity of the scientific record, and the safety of patients who serve as human subjects in pre- and post-marketing clinical trials. Conflicts of interest in clinical trials result in deadly medicine. Adverse drug reactions in FDA-approved drugs are the leading cause of death in the United States.

Continuum Magazine: Interview With Leon Chaitow

UK Holistic doctor LEON CHAITOW combines practical experience, intellectual wisdom and some controversy in a wide-ranging interview focused on immunity and health 

Once, after giving my hope speech during a public forum organized by the Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC), I was angrily pulled aside by the head of staff. He begged me to stop saying that AIDS wasn't 100% fatal. His reasons were:

1. Efforts to persuade gay men to practice safe sex may be undermined because they would take AIDS less seriously.

2. It was bad for fund raising

3. It would make lobbying for increased federal funding more difficult.

Viral Load And The PCR: Why They Can't Be Used To Prove HIV Infection: Continuum Magazine

The viral load theory has created a new worry to produce unbearable stress in the lives of desperate people. It is now said that a person has only one shot at the new "anti-viral" drugs, chiefly the protease inhibitors. If you don't take them at exactly the right time, in exactly the right combinations or amounts, or if you foolishly take only one drug at a time, or lower your dose because the current dose is making you sick, your virus will become resistant and the drugs will never work on you again. And you can't just quit the drugs either, for the same reason, even if they are making you deathly ill.

AIDS And The Voodoo Hex: Matt Irwin

"The most extensive of all the morbid mental conditions which reflect themselves so disastrously in the human system is the state of fear. It has many degrees of gradation, from the state of extreme alarm, fright, and terror, down to the slightest shade of apprehension of intending evil. But all along the line it is the same thing -- a paralyzing impression upon the centres of life which can produce, through the agency of the nervous system, a vast variety of morbid symptoms in every tissue of the body."

-- Dr. William H. Holcomb (Omkar 1998)

The most insidious characteristic of any righteous new movement is that it maintains its power by employing the twin tactics of terror and guilt. Terror of the "great threat" must first be instilled, upheld by the societal guilt that comes with questioning the validity of the threat. To question the validity of the threat -- in this case to discuss actual AIDS figures rather than hysterical projections -- becomes equated with badness, wrongness, grave irresponsibility, moral collapse -- and in this case, with homophobia, racism, right-wing fanaticism, and ultimately, that catch-all phrase: murder.

The so-called AIDS dissidents have been accused in this manner for years, and it is this magnetic field of political correctness and reflexive morality surrounding AIDS that has kept the real science from being conducted, the real articles from being written, the real questions from being asked.  Ten years and $22 billion have been wasted. Countless thousands have been poisoned, to varying degrees, by AZT, ddI, ddC and other toxic and ineffective AIDS medications. Countless millions worldwide have been terrorised by this vague, ever-expanding, multi-dimensional death sentence called HIV, and those who have tested positive have had to struggle against a merciless tide of cultural messages telling them they're going to die.

Amidst the billion dollar competition to create the newest blockbuster drug, there's one thing worth more than all the ads money can buy; a single positive mention in a respected medical journal. Doctors rely so heavily on what's printed in journals, it directly affects a drug's success or failure

  There's no point mincing words: we've been murdered by incompetence. Despite the expenditure of billions of dollars on federal AIDS research, we have little of value to show for it.

There is an almost Orwellian term for this problem - "patient compliance," meaning How can we get these people to do what we need them to? Patients take handfuls of pills that can make them feel awful day and night, rearrange their lives so their stomachs are empty or full when it's time to take this or that drug. Quality of life? The adverse effects of the drugs are so voluminous it's almost absurd: kidney stones, vomiting, seizures, neuropathy, gastrointestinal disorders, excessive bleeding in haemophiliacs. There are more than 100 side effects listed.

The Story of Joint Action Council Kannur (JACK): Anju Singh

What happened at Chhochi is a classic example of how the HIV hysteria can get out of hand and destroy not only individual lives but also whole communities.

I have attended, as a reporter, eight International AIDS Conferences -- in Washington, D.C., Montreal, San Francisco, Stockholm, Florence, Berlin, Vancouver, and this year, Geneva. They are uniformly awful, a total waste of a journalist's time. Mostly I go just to fortify my belief that AIDS -- the entire industry and social machinery of it -- is at its root a totalitarian system. By that, I mean that there is a central ideology that seeks to enforce its domination by methodically obstructing any ideas that run counter to it. This is no place for journalists.

''Media'' -- to the extent that they are present, are only there for decorative purposes. If any rogue journalist actually asks a question -- a real question -- he or she is met with a sea of frowning faces and hisses.

Drug Company Influence On Medical Education In USA

Attempts to influence the judgment of doctors by commercial interests serving the medical industrial complex are nothing if not thorough. Unfortunately, they seem to work.

    

I realize that to the average American, when I say ''AIDS'' you think of perhaps Liz Taylor or Elton John and red ribbons and marches and quilts and candles and all kinds of benevolence. All of that stuff is probably well intentioned enough. But the real force driving the AIDS super-structure, what pulses just beneath the patina of do-goodism -- is an industry of awesome, relentless, amoral power -- the pharmaceutical industry

These ''International AIDS Conferences'' are really just microcosms of the AIDS industry itself. They are funded by, driven by, and controlled by the pharmaceutical industry. At every conference, the leading pharmaceutical giants take up an entire stadium-sized floor with their structures -- mini-villages that they build, complete with huge video screens, towering pillars, interactive displays and all kinds of goodies, including CDs, videos, carry bags, condoms, ice cream, chocolates and whatever else they can imagine will lure conference delegates into their booths.

Most of the doctors present are there courtesy of the pharmaceutical industry, and in addition to their travel expenses and per diems, they are invited to a constant series of lavish lunches and dinners. Many of the doctors who write for medical journals about the effects of these AIDS drugs are paid consultants to the drug companies. It is, in short, a festival of sophisticated whoredom.

The Problem With Protease: Lawrence Goodman

Protease combos were billed as a miracle. While the meds saved many lives, most HIV positives could have been spared side effects, premature resistance and lost options - if only one mistake hadn't been made

As As a scientist who has studied AIDS for 16 years, I have determined that AIDS has little to do with science and is not even primarily a medical issue. AIDS is a sociological phenomenon held together by fear, creating a kind of medical McCarthyism that has transgressed and collapsed all the rules of science, and has imposed a brew of belief and pseudoscience on a vulnerable public.

Fifty percent of Africans have no sewage systems. Their drinking water mixes with animal and human waste.

Lefties, Pharma And AIDS: David Crowe

There is not much that radicals and multinational companies agree on, but the desperate need for drugs for those suffering from AIDS is an exception. Left-wing radicals may argue that drugs should be made available without cost to victims, or that patents should be waived to allow production by generic manufacturers, but by and large they strongly support the drugs into bodies philosophy.

I often wonder what would happen if all federal money for AIDS education, research, treatment, and so forth was suddenly dropped to zero. It's my belief that AIDS would go away. In other words, the AIDS diseases that we see today would be reassigned to their former categories; pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, Kaposi's sarcoma, and the other 25 or so different diseases, now including cervical dysplasia and so forth. AIDS has been a disease of definition. If we said that it didn't exist and didn't pay for it with taxpayers money, it would disappear into the background'

A person can react positive even though he or she is not infected with HIV. The tests are interpreted differently in different countries, which means that a person who is positive in Africa or Thailand can be negative when tested in Australia. There is no justification for the fact that most people have not been informed about the serious inaccuracy of the tests. The error has catastrophic repercussions on thousands of people
