The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS

Nine years ago, January 1990, my book The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS came
out. The Advocate said it "will undoubtedly become the most important
nonfiction book on AIDS since Shilts’s And the Band Played On and Paul
Monette’s Borrowed Time," while the Journal of the American Medical
Association called it "thoroughly researched, poignantly written, and a
must-read for anyone interested in learning the dynamics of the HIV
epidemic."

>Nine years ago, January 1990,

LOL. Well, it's turned out that book has gone into the trashbin of
history. The AIDS pandemic is largely driven by heterosexual activity.

That's reality, not fumento's deranged ditherings.

It has gone into books proved 100% correct as you well know.

Now for that apology Carter.

NEW YORK POST CONFIRMS THE BOOK WAS 100% CORRECT IN 2004 (So much for
Carter): -

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.

Typing too fast again.

I meant to say: -

It has passed into history as proved 100% correct. You well know that Mr.
Carter.

You have read the stats.Same hetero percentage as ten years ago.
