I understand that African governments may have an incentive for over-reporting the problem as it could lead to more aid being sent and that the shadowy Gay Media wouldn't want those numbers examined too closely as it might jeopardize AIDS research funding, but the lowest reputable number I found was 28 Million (from the Economist, "AIDS: How to Live With It, Not Die of It," May 11, 2002.) Perhaps you could direct me to your sources?

Actually, the opposite may be true. People in Africa tend to lie about AIDS. When they die, family members say they were "poisoned" and such.

The best I can do is tell you that I got the information by linking with articles from threads on the Free Republic that were running right after Bush's State of the Union Address in January 2003.In addition to reports about overreporting there was quite a bit of info about the fact that they frequently,if not always,used needles over aqnd over to innoculate children and adults.This was done in administering anti-biotics as well as immunization vaccines.

One article I had bookmarked,but I don't know how to link you with can be found at www.duesberg.com/africa2.html.I am sorry I can't do better but the information is very interesting.Most of the threads at FR had AIDS in the title so might do a search and then link with some of the posters links.
