Have you ever read Christine Maggiore's book "What if everything you thought you knew about AIDS was wrong?"

I don't have the book but her work and personal history is very interesting.

Christine Maggiore - 2 short articles and and interview at VirusMyth.Net
AliveAndWell.org - her excellent website

Thanks for the mention. It's been a while since I went through some of these sites. If you put her ideas together with Duesberg, you can derive a certain picture. But I'm still not quite ready to dismiss AIDS/HIV altogether. But it's clear we don't know as much as we pretend to with AIDS. What I find most objectionable is that anyone like Duesberg is automatically excluded because he won't tow the party line. It's more like old-time Red front organizations, like American Communists in the Thirties and Forties, than it is like normal science. Certainly Duesberg, the man who discovered retroviruses, deserves serious consideration rather than to be dismissed by the entire AIDS industry merely because he casts some serious doubts upon that which sustains their revenue stream.

For a realistic survey on the situation in Africa, you might want to read this from Christine Maggiore's website. It is a reprint of an investigative article written a few years ago for Rolling Stone. The writer started out to prove one thing and changed his mind when he couldn't find any coffins:

AIDS in Africa: In Search of the Truth by Rian Malan 11/2001

During the 14th century, the Black Plague killed 25 million people.

More than seven centuries of progress later, over 30 million people have died of AIDS, with 70 million currently infected with no cure in sight.

But I was wrong about one thing.

During the past five years, life expectancy in Zambia has dropped from 45 to 30.

No disease (or army, for that matter) has destroyed a population like AIDS has.

According to a friend of mine who visits Africa often, there are graves everywhere.

And often bodies are burned surreptitiously because of the shame and fear.

But it's only when you do the math regarding the exponential nature of aids do you realize that places like Botswana and parts of South Africa where over 35% of the population are infected, will not to make it into the next decade.

I'd be happy to be wrong. But I think we're all going to wake up 10 years from now and be oh-so-surprised at the lack of melantonin worldwide.

Like Chris Rock says, "They ain't NEVER gonna cure aids!"
