Behind every 'AIDS' story lies a money making scam.
FLEMINGTON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 16, 2005--

Results of a new national survey of 864 physicians and 1,339 members of
the
general public revealed that a significant majority of both groups
believe

that mandatory, federally funded HIV testing would improve the overall
health of the U.S. population.

The national e-survey was conducted by HCD Research during February 12
-14,
as part of its continuing investigation of the social, political and
economic issues confronting the U.S. health care system. The margin of
error
in the survey was plus or minus 3% at a 95% confidence level.

The survey revealed that among the general public:

-- 63% of Americans believe that mandatory, federally funded HIV testing
would improve the overall health of the U.S. population

-- 60% indicated that the associated health care benefits of mandatory,
federally funded HIV testing outweigh the social implications

-- 40% indicated that the social implications of mandatory, federally
funded
HIV testing outweigh the associated health care benefits

The most frequently cited social concerns of those representing the
general
public who were not in favor of mandatory testing were:

Difficulty obtaining life insurance 76%

Job/employment issues 71%

The least frequently reported social concerns were:

The cost of testing is too high for public funding 52%

Difficulty in marriage and other social relations 51%

Inadequate access to medical and psychological counseling 46%

Among the sample of physicians:

-- 64% believe that mandatory, federally funded HIV testing would improve

the overall health of the U.S. population

-- 59% reported that the associated health care benefits of mandatory,
federally funded HIV testing outweigh the social implications

-- 41% indicated that the social implications of mandatory, federally
funded
HIV testing outweigh the associated health care benefits

The most frequently cited social concerns by physicians who were not in
favor of mandatory testing were:

Difficulty obtaining life insurance 84%

Job/employment issues 77%

The least frequently reported social concerns were:

Difficulty in marriage and other social relations 48%

Inadequate access to medical and psychological counseling 44%

The cost of testing is too high for public funding 34%

"Physicians are a distinct group who share similar education, income and
status in society, and it is intriguing that their views reflect those of

the general public on serious and evolving health care issues such as
this

one," noted Glenn Kessler, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, HCD Research.

According to a recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine,
health

experts recommend that virtually all Americans be screened routinely for
the
HIV AIDS virus, much as they are for cancer and other conditions. In
addition, the report cited recent federally funded studies which
determined
that the cost of routinely testing and treating nearly all adults would
be

outweighed by a reduction in new infections and the opportunity to start
patients on antiviral medications early in the disease progression.

>Behind every 'AIDS' story lies a money making scam.

   In the same AVN issue, Mark Hanau of A.I. Multimedia writes in with
   the following thoughts which AVN headlines as "Ignorance Is Bliss":
   "...If the adult industry buys into the AIDS terror campaign,
   the US government will close us down on health not moral grounds."

If having a financial interest in an issue disqualifies HCD from
researching or commenting about it, then it disqualifies you too,
Paul/Mark.

You reject what they say on the grounds that they have a financial
interest in the issues they write about.  You have a financial interest
in the issues you write about here... but somehow that's different.

You don't judge yourself, and expect us not to judge you, by the same
standards you use, and expect us to use, to judge others.

I have no financial interest whatsoever. Being a dissident has done me
nothing but financial harm. My position is based on moral grounds and
NOTHING else.

To suggest otherwise is absurd.

You are grasping at straws (or lies to be more exact) to try to deflect
attention from this obvious scam.
