...and together with hundreds of his friends who led similar lifestyles
is 100% healthy.

"Since the late 1970's I have had many many encounters with prostitutes.
Primarily I vistit massage parlors with Korean girls.  I always try to
have sex without condoms.  I also have seen countless streetwalkers.  Many
with serious drug problems.
 
I still don't have aids"

STRAIGHT AIDS MYTH SHATTERED
New York Post
March 19, 2004 --

THE public health experts - and their amen corner in the media - owe Helen
Gurley Brown an apology.
The legendary Cosmopolitan editor was vilified in 1993 when she published
a piece called "The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS." But she was right.
Eleven years later, Details is asking: "Whatever Happened to AIDS and
Straight Men?" The article states, "A disease-free man who has
unprotected sex with a drug-free woman stands a one in 5 million chance of
contracting HIV."

The story by Kevin Gray also cites a joke that made the rounds of the New
York City Department of Health as statistics came in showing that the
predicted spread of AIDS to heterosexuals wasn't happening:

"What do you call a man who got HIV from his girlfriend? . . . A liar."

"I feel somewhat vindicated," Brown told PAGE SIX.
Michael Fumento, who wrote the original 1990 book titled "The Myth of
Heterosexual AIDS," said, "I'm not waiting for an apology. It's not going
to happen."

When Basic Books published Fumento's tome, "Distributors refused to handle
it," he says. "Stores refused to carry it. And at many stores that did
have it, clerks left it in the basement."

Celia Farber, who wrote an AIDS column in Spin magazine, was routinely
attacked because she refused to rehash the propaganda put out by AmFAR and
other groups.

"Everybody who was wrong got journalism awards. Everybody who was right
got all but driven from the profession," Farber said. Farber exposed the
conspiracy between profit-hungry drug companies, researchers who wanted
more funding, homosexuals who didn't want the
disease to be known as "the gay plague," and conservatives who wanted to
turn back the sexual revolution.

"They believed in what they were doing, not what they were saying,"
Fumento said. "They knew it was lies. They felt the end justified the
means."

At a recent editorial meeting at Seed, the new science magazine, Pulitzer
Prize-winning reporter Laurie Garrett supposedly threatened to quit when a
colleague suggested a story about Peter Duesberg, a leading
retrovirologist. Duesberg lost his funding, his laboratory, and his
students when he announced in 1987 that HIV doesn't cause AIDS. "He lost
everything," said one insider. Duesberg switched to cancer research, and
is now touted to
win a Nobel Prize.

Sex And HIV: Behaviour-Change Trial Shows No Link
The East African (Nairobi)
March 17, 2003
Posted to the web March 19, 2003

By Paul Redfern, Special Correspondent Nairobi
A UK funded trial aimed at reducing the spread of Aids in Uganda by
modifying sexual behaviour appears to have had little discernible effect.

The trial, carried out on around 15,000 people in the Masaka region,
involved distributing condoms, treating around 12,000 victims of sexually
transmitted diseases and counselling.

However, while the trial led to a marked change in sexual behavioural
patterns, with the proportion reporting causal sexual partners falling
from around 35 per cent to 15 per cent, there was no noticeable fall in
the number of new cases of HIV infection, although there was a significant
reduction in sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis and
gonorrhoea.
The trial results, which were reported in the British medical journal The
Lancet, have already aroused some controversy.

The team leader of the trial, Dr Anatoli Kamalai, acknowledged that there
was "no measurable reduction" in HIV incidence with "no hint of even a
small effect."

The 'Prostitute' Paradox
If "AIDS" ("HIV") was sexually transmitted, we should find it in sex-trade
workers. The following references, including five studies published in
prestigious scientific journals, demonstrate NO sexual transmission.
In this study, the authors estimated overall and cause-specific mortality
among prostitute women. They recorded information on prostitute women
identified by police and health department surveillance in Colorado
Springs, Colorado, from 1967 to 1999. The authors assessed cause-specific
mortality in this open cohort of 1,969 women [...]
Violence and drug use were the predominant causes of death, both during
periods of prostitution and during the whole observation period. [...]
Deaths from acquired immunodeficiency syndrome occurred exclusively among
prostitutes who admitted to injecting drug use or were inferred to have a
history of it.
Potterat J J et al. Mortality in a Long-term Open Cohort of Prostitute
Women. Am J Epidemiol 2004;159:778-785.
During a 36-month period, a multidisciplinary team manned a van that
visited the major location of open prostitution in the Tel Aviv area
[...]
All 128 females who did not admit to drug abuse were seronegative.
A thorough search of recent literature fail to demonstrate unequivocal
seropositivity among British, French, German, Italian, or Dutch
prostitutes without drug histories.
Modan, B et al. Prevalence of HIV antibodies in transsexual and female
prostitutes, American Journal of Public Health. 1992;82(4):590-592.
Michael Wright also report  this study in A Former AIDS Researcher Has
Second Thoughts, part one: Manufacturing the AIDS Scare.
In order to determine whether prostitutes operating outside of areas of
high drug abuse have equally elevated rates of infection, 354 prostitutes
were surveyed in Tijuana, Mexico [...]
None of the 354 [blood] samples [...] was positive for HIV-1 or HIV-2[…]
Condoms were used [...] for less than half of their sexual contacts.
Only 4 female prostitutes (1%) admitted to ever having abused intravenous
drugs.
Infection with HIV was not found in this prostitute population despite the
close proximity to neighboring San Diego, CA, which has a high incidence
of diagnosed cases of AIDS, and to Los Angeles, which has a reported 4%
prevalence of HIV infection in prostitutes.
Hyams KC et al. HIV infection in a non-drug abusing prostitute
population.
Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases. 1989;21(3):353-4.
David Crowe also report this study in Referenced Quotes about Transmission
of HIV and AIDS.
448 licensed female prostitutes in Nuremburg, West Germany, were studied
in March and April 1986.
No prostitute tested was anti-HIV positive [...] they had been prostitutes
for 77 months on average [...] The mean number of clients was 13 per week
[...]
This heterosexually very active group of women has remained free from HIV
infection.
Smith GL, Smith KF. Lack of HIV infection and condom use in licensed
prostitutes. Lancet. 1986;1392.
In September, 1985, we collected 56 samples of blood in the rue
Saint-Denis, the most notorious street in Paris for prostitution. [...]
No prostitute was seropositive.
These women, aged 18-60 have sexual intercourse 15-25 times daily and do
not routinely use protection. Altough contracting AIDS is greatly feared
by these women, only 15 used condoms with all their customers.
[...] none of the Paris prostitute was a drug addict.
Brenky-Faudeux D, Fribourg-Blanc A. HTLV-III antibody in prostitutes.
Lancet. 1985;2:1424.
The same results were reported from Amsterdam, one of the world's centers
of legalized prostitution. When several hundred non-drug using prostitutes
were studied, investigators found no HIV-positive women even though they
averaged more than 200 clients per year
Coutinho RA, van der Helm TH. [No indications for LAV/HTLV-III in
non-drug-using prostitutes in Amsterdam]. Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd,
1986;130(11):508.
As reported by David W. Rasnick, Ph.D., in a letter published by the
British Medical Journal Sex has nothing to do with AIDS.
Of course, sex-trade workers taking hard drugs are more likely to become
sick, it has nothing to do with "HIV" or "AIDS". Strong drugs have a
proven immune suppressive effect, and intravenous drugs injections often
carry some foreign proteins, adding an extra burden on the immune system.
