Solid proof of parasite coverup? regarding auto immune diseases.

Hi, since I'm an auto immune hepatitis patient, my interest to new technologies and treatments is very high. Traditional medicine doesnt have a cure yet, and lets be honest, they never will since it would put the immunesuppression pill popping industry out of business. (everybody knows that)


I came across an article of unpublished research about the mechanics of AIH and probable future treatments.
2 details caught my eye.

The article can be found here:

The first thing is:

This research was supported by grants R01 AI49387-01, R56 AI049387-05, and R01 AI068963-01 from the [b]National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, a division of the National Institutes of Health.[/b]


So my first alarm bells go off, why would an institure of Infecteous diseases and allergies fund research of chronic auto immune hepatitis? Do they have interest in knowing what kind of autoimmune diseases can be caused by infecteous diseases? Do they know if and what virus, bacteria, parasite causes this kind of disease?
DO they know Hulda Clark and Rife plus others weren't such quacks afterall?



Second thing:

Apparently they KNOW what causes this disease, since they mutated a proteine producing gene in producing faulty "helper cells" (which AIH patients apparently have), that die too often to be able to correct the killer cells. So they are talking about the development of new treatments to keep the "helper cells" alive longer to prevent the killer cells from killing liver cells, since they dont change the cause this looks like another symptom suppresion.




So in layman's terms:
They open the water tap in a mouse model, (they know which tap, they know how to open the tap.)
And they are talking about inventing the most advanced high tech mop, able to absorp all the water coming out without damaging the walls or the surface. All hidden and covered in advanced scientific lingo of course.


Why wont they just find out how to close the tap?





Is this a red flag or should I go out and get professional help? :)
