...from the Book: -Inventing the AIDS Virus- by Peter Duesberg.
To review Duesberg:
Ninety percent of all AIDS cases occur in men, at least outside of Africa (an enigma in itself). Anyone who has ever had a regular STD knows how unlikely it is to remain in one gender over another. Since this syndrome is not spreading outside of any AIDS risk group, the causes must be non-infectious; a contagious disease, by definition, spreads into the general population, as do all microbes.
And although thousands of HIV-free AIDS cases have been described in the medial literature (Duesberg, HIV Gap, 955-956), possibly indicating hundreds of thousands more, no study has ever presented a group of AIDS patients genuinely free of drug use or other AIDS risks
such as hemophilia. (P.H. Duesberg, ´The Duesberg Phenomenon´: Duesberg and Other Voices (letter) Science, 267 (1995a): 313)
Let us not forget that HIV does not meet Koch´s postulates, Duesberg´s initial query:
1/ First, the germ must be found growing abundantly in every patient and every diseased tissue
2/ Second, the germ must be isolated and grown in the laboratory
3/ Third, the purified germ must cause the disease again in another host.
Koch´s postulates cut to the heart of the issue, exonerating HIV and rendering most AIDS research entirely pointless:
1/ No trace of the virus can be found in either the Kaposi´s sarcomas or the neurons of the central nervous system. ...in most individuals suffering from AIDS, no virus particles can be found anywhere in the body. The abundance of uninfected T-cells in ALL AIDS patients is the fatal, definitive argument against the many false claims for high viral loads or burdens in AIDS patients. If T-cells remain uninfected, there are no viruses to infect them. ...many people dying of AIDS-like conditions, ranging from Kaposi´s sarcoma to immune deficiencies and various opportunistic infections, have never been infected by HIV in the first place. The CDC does not include most of these antibody-negative cases in its AIDS figures, rendering these people invisible.
According to the CDC´s own statistics, at least 25 percent of all official AIDS cases have never been tested for antibodies against HIV, many of whom might turn out to be negative.
2/ After neutralizing the virus with the immune response (antibodies), an HIV-positive person requires an average of one thousand unprotectred sexual contacts to pass this virus along just one. (P.H. Duesberg, AIDS Acquired by Drug Consumption, 201-177; J.A. Jacquez, J.S. Koopman, C.P. Simon, and I.M. Longini Jr., Role of the Primary Infection in Epidemics of HIV Infection in Gay Cohorts, Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes, 7 (1994): 1169-1184.
3/ HIV should cause AIDS within a few weeks of infection. Blood from AIDS patients was injected into several chimpanzees in 1983, before the availability of HIV tests. The animals were infected by HIV, as later
evidenced by antibodies against the virus, but in ten years (probably more now) none has yet developed any sickness. Roughly 150 other lab chimpanzees, injected with purified HIV since 1984, have proved that antibodies against the virus are generated within a month of inoculation just as in humans, but again, none has developed symptoms to this very day. (When a House Officer Getrs AIDS, New England Journal of Medicine (1989). In short, no animal becomes sick from HIV, although monkeys and other test animals do suffer disease from human viruses causing polio, flu, hepatitis, and other conditions.
Ten years later there is not even one case in the scientific literature of a health care worker who ever contracted presumably infectious AIDS from a patient. The complete failure of four hundred thousand AIDS
patients to transmit their diseases to even one of their unvaccinated doctors in ten years can only mean one thing: AIDS is not infectious.
However, several thousand health care workers have by now been diagnosed with AIDS, but these individuals belong to the same AIDS risk groups as 90 percent of all AIDS cases -- homosexuals and intravenous drug users.
The literature invludes more than 4,621 clinically diagnosed AIDS cases that are all HIV-free. To cover up this discrepancy with overwhelming correlation, HIV-free AIDS cases were renamed in 1992 as idiopathic CD4-lymphocytopenia (ICL) cases by the CDC and Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Infecious disease do not discriminate between sexes. AIDS attacks men ten times more than women in Europe and the United States.
Farr´s Law: Infectious diseases spread exponentially. AIDS does not. 1 in 250 Americans (0.4 percent) have been positive ever since HIV could be detected in 1984. The HIV epidemic is constant and thus old, but the AIDS epidemic is increasing and thus new. ...the number of HIV-infected Americans has been an unchanging 1 million since HIV was able to be tested in 1985.
AIDS does not meet the classical epidemiological criteria of an infectious disease. The virus could barely be detected even in late-stage AIDS patients. There is no HIV reactivation and no HIV in MOST
AIDS patients.
The argument from authority cites the overwhelming evidence for HIV, without becoming too specific. In another form, it rebuffs inquisitive epidemiologists for lacking clinical experience while bypassing medical critics for having no epidemiological training. In other words, unless one is an expert in everything, one may not question anything.
