reports:

"After seeking help of religious leaders for spreading the education
of killer disease AIDS, the Jammu and Kashmir AIDS prevention society
plans to educate the security forces for prevention and control of the
disease.

This comes fore when the state AIDS Prevention control society
organized a seminar wherein more than 500 CRPF men were briefed about
the causes and prevention of the disease."

Erm, when did AIDS become a "killer disease?"  Some reporters really
should do a little more research.

>Ask David Pasquarelli.

He's dead, but that's probably your point. :)

Confusingly the definition of AIDS differs between countries, but I
don't think any define it as a killer disease, or even a disease.

David Pasquarelli exhibited two very common reactions.

Firstly, he became an HIV/AIDS activist and campaigner after receiving
his diagnosis.  It's quite common for people who have been diagnosed
with a particular condition to 'get involved' in this way.  Usually
the 'afflicted' promote the cause, however David took the opposite
path.  

Secondly, David exhibited what I call the 'God Condition.'  A process
whereby non-believers 'see the light' towards the end of their life. I
saw this in a friend who died recently of something totally
unconnected with HIV and AIDS.  Throughout his life he had no belief
in God, but right at the very end he 'let God into his life'.  It's
quite sad when people abandon their beliefs in this way, but it does
happen.

On the other side of the coin there are those who have championed the
HIV=AIDS=Death cause, but later switch to the other side of the
debate.  So it does work both ways.

Yes. He died of AIDS. Because HIV infection resulted directly and
indirectly in a depletion of CD4 count until he got otherwise rare
opportunistic infections which killed him.

Which is precisely what will happen to you unless you wise up and stop
believing the right wing bullshit and lies you've embraced.

I do not wish you dead. Quite to the contrary.

The assumption here is that HIV causes the depletion of CD4 cell count
which is the basic mantra of the HIV=AID$ industry.  Current medical
research shows that this assumption is wrong and has been wrong for 20
years.

See JAMA rodriguez sept 27 2006 in which there HIV viral load is not
predictive of CD4 cell count decline.

HIV is a benign retrovirus which does not kill CD4 cells.

Death from AIDS is caused by cytotoxic drugs used to treat HIV.

That's a good point.  For me, at least, there's no correlation between
CD4 count and 'viral load' what-so-ever.

I don't think anyone is really sure what 'viral load' measures,
anyway.  But it gives pretty inaccurate results whatever it is.

That's a complete distortion of the Rodriguez data. This has been

Yes it does: here is the paper: "greater than 90% amount of HIV
disease progression and pathogenesis is
due to factors other than viral load." authors quote.

Anyone can read for themselves the paper which shows that CD4 decline
is not predicted by viral load.  This is not the only paper.  There
are many others.  This has been going on for 20 years and we know by
now the truth please.

http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/full/297/8/805

Presenting Plasma HIV RNA Level and Rate of CD4 T-Cell Decline

To the Editor: The study by Dr Rodriguez and colleagues1 concludes
that presenting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) plasma RNA viral
load only minimally predicts the rate of CD4 cell decline in
individuals with HIV infection and hypothesizes that a significant
(>90%) amount of HIV disease progression and pathogenesis is
*****due to factors other than viral load.******

The results are portrayed as casting doubt on the utility of an early
viral load measurement to predict disease outcome in individuals.

CONCLUSIONS: Presenting HIV RNA level predicts the rate of CD4 cell
decline only minimally in untreated persons. Other factors, as yet
undefined, likely drive CD4 cell losses in HIV infection.

THAT is not the same as saying that HIV does not cause AIDS.

As I have been saying on this NG for over a goddamned decade, the
stupidity of HIV denialists is that it deflects from GENUINE issues.

Such as HOW does HIV cause AIDS?

This isn't even news (except maybe to John Mellors).

And again it does NOT mean--nor do the authors suggest, imply or
anywhere state the contention, that HIV does not exist or does not
cause AIDS.

That's a typically denialist misreading--disingenuous or otherwise.

There are at least two questions that need to be answered before that:

Does HIV exist?

Does HIV cause (or lead to) AIDS?

And I don't think "HIV denialists" deflect from any issues.  It's not
as if they receive any of the money spent on HIV/AIDS research or get
much press coverage.  Few people know there are those who question the
HIV=AIDS=Death hypothesis.

It's lack of questioning that's got us into this HIV=AIDS=Death mess.
In 1984 Dr Robert Gallo announced to the world he had discovered the
cause of AIDS: HIV.  Unfortunately no one bothered to question his
theory.  And even now, 23 years later, after he's known to be a liar
and thief people still continue with believing his 'research.'

His other ideas are idiotic. Drugs cause AIDS? I'd know one HELL of a

I thought you'd have a bit of a problem going along with the rest of
his claims.

>You think he's an idiot?

I've read some of his Inventing the AIDS Virus book, seen him being
interviewed and listened to some of the radio shows he's been on.

I'm not entirely sure what to make of him.  It's difficult to just
toss aside his qualifications and knowledge, but I think his pet
theory that recreational drug use causes AIDS is just as difficult to
believe as the HIV=AIDS=Death theory.  I think like you, and the
orthodox HIV/AID view, Duesberg has closed his mind and has tunnel
vision.

I also get the feeling that Duesberg enjoys his 'dissident' status.
Perhaps he's just making the most of what he's got left.  He's forever
moaning about having no students, no grant money and not being invited
to any parties.  I wonder what he does all day at the University of
California in Berkeley?

Okay, there's what I think about Peter Duesberg.

Now tell me, what do you think about Robert Gallo?

>Do you think HIV exists or not.

I have been asked that question here before and answered it.  On that
occasion my first answer was rejected and I was forced into replying
'yes' or 'no.'  Sometimes things aren't as simple as that, however
giving the choice between those two words I choose 'no.'

HIV is defined the virus that causes AIDS.  I think that is a
statement you would agree with.  I do not believe it is true.  I do
not believe that having a few specific proteins in my blood which
react to some pre-determined enzymes means I *will* get one of the
conditions listed here: <http://www.patient.co.uk/showdoc/40002279/>.

And if HIV doesn't cause AIDS, HIV can't be HIV because HIV causes
AIDS.

>>>>Does HIV cause (or lead to) AIDS?

>I hope not but I sadly think you will.

The only way I will get AIDS is by going to the US.  Me and my <100
CD4 count are AIDS free here in Europe, but in the US we'd be an AIDS

Then really, you'd have to say that no infectious disease exists. The
techniques used to identify HIV are the same used for many viruses.

Then you are deluded.

What I believe is that HIV infection results through direct and, more
often, indirect, mechanisms in the depletion of CD4+ T lymphocytes.
This in turn results in the susceptibility to the types of infections
and diseases listed above.

These proteins in your blood are not found in HIV uninfected
individuals. HIV-negative individuals do not, with VERY rare
exceptions, see CD4 counts plunge persistently toward zero.

There is currently a discussion on one of the 'alternative' AIDS
forums about that very topic.  Someone appears to be arguing that
viruses don't exist and we don't have or need an immune system.

I'm sure there's a lot more to the argument than that.  Let's just not
go there, though.  I'm not suggesting that viruses, in general, don't
exist.

Yes, you're probably right.  I was in a bit of a rush when I wrote
that.  I think I meant something like:

'I do not believe that having a few antibodies in my blood which react

Well, putting my mistake to one side if we can...

The HIV antibody test initially suggested that almost everyone was
HIV+ and was considered too unreliable for use.  So, now, blood plasma
has to be diluted hundreds of times to give a more 'accurate' result.

<http://www.virusmyth.net/aids/data/rgelisa.htm>

>HIV-negative individuals do not, with VERY rare
>exceptions, see CD4 counts plunge persistently toward zero.

I don't think those diagnosed HIV+ see that happen either.  What
usually happens is a slow decline in CD4 over a period of many years.
I'm not aware of any long-term CD4 tests on 'healthy' people that
could be used as a comparison against someone who is diagnosed HIV+.

And even if there were, comparisons might not prove very much.  For
many people the worry of being diagnosed HIV+ and the regular health
checks may be enough to lower CD4 anyway.  Depression, which is common
in those diagnosed HIV+, can reduce CD4.

>I'd say you are at extremely high risk of dying within the next year
>unless you get treatment.

That's very pessimistic.

According to NAM, which is funded by the drug companies, look:
<http://www.nam.org.uk/cms1177632.asp>, I have a 40.1% chance of
developing AIDS within the next three years.  Or make that an 85.5%
chance if we use the viral load result I had before my last one.

I couldn't find their 'table of death' on their website, so I've
uploaded it here

You already got, dear. You got HIV. You got a dangerously low CD4
count.

Stress does NOT cause that on its own. There are no data whatsoever
anywhere to indicate that stress causes a persistent and severe
depletion of CD4 count. That would cause A LOT more people to have
AIDS.

The antibody tests they use now are QUITE reliable. The cross

Stress does NOT cause that to happen. You're correct that it happens
among most over about 8 years. Stress does NOT do that alone. It's
nonsense. But that's an average--some people have very rapid
progression, some very slow. Also normal that people with an infection
present differently.

Stress CAN affect the progression of HIV disease, of course. It is
good to address stress reduction, getting enough sleep and exercise,
good nutrition--all these things are important of course.

Of course not to you. You're in abject denial. You happily believe a
ridiculous theory based on nothing at all to account for your very low
CD4 count.

Bullshit. You will believe this notion in the absence of ANY data

AIDS.

Or perhaps you have data? None?

Savastano M, Aita M, Barlani F. Psychological, neural, endocrine, and
immune study of stress in tinnitus patients: any correlation between
psychometric and biochemical measures? Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol. 2007
Feb;116(2):100-6.

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Padua University,
Padua, Italy.

OBJECTIVES: The present study was carried out in tinnitus patients in
order to study the psychological distress and the biochemical measures
of this stressful condition. Psychological features were compared to
immune and neuroendocrine parameters in order to verify in these
subjects the possible presence of psychological and somatic responses
to stress. METHODS: We studied 85 tinnitus patients who underwent
hematochemical immune tests: lymphocyte subpopulations (CD3; CD4;
CD3+CD4; CD8; CD19; CD16NK; CD3+CD16+CD56; and CD4/CD8), cortisol,
adrenocorticotropic hormone, beta-endorphin, prolactin, and urinary
catecholamine. RESULTS: Clinically, significant scores were obtained
for hysteria, depression, paranoia, hypochondrias, and social
introversion; and high scores were obtained for anxiety, depression,
care for health, difficulty of treatment, low self-esteem, family and
work difficulties, and social discomfort. There was a low to medium
level of self-perception of stress. The less a subject felt stressed,
the higher was his or her satisfaction level in the areas of
psychological and physical functioning. The scores on the tests and
the biochemical measures did not show a significant correlation, but
there was a tendency to correlation for the lymphocytes CD19 and
CD16NK and for adrenocorticotropic hormone. CONCLUSIONS: The
comparison between the psychometric and biochemical variables did not
reveal any significant correlation among stress perception, daily
satisfaction, and the biochemical parameters of stress.

Stress and depression can have a huge impact on someone's physical

I really have looked.  There is some data about CD4 counts of 'HIV-'
people, however they have other medical problems/conditions so the
information isn't very useful.

Details about what an 'average' CD4 count should be seem a bit vague:
anything from 500 to 800.  Maybe more, maybe less.

And during the twelve years I've been diagnosed HIV+ what's considered
to be an acceptable CD4 count has fallen and fallen.  I think in
reality CD4 counts do fluctuate widely from one person to the next,
and even within the same person.  Everyday things such as time of day,
time of year, mood, exercise and being pregnant can all cause CD4
counts to fall.

I think judging someone's health based on CD4 count alone, which is
what happens to those diagnosed HIV+, isn't very accurate.

I've asked you a couple of times what your CD4 count is and you've
chosen to ignore my question and not answer it.  Is your CD4 count not
very good, or do you simply not know what it is?

And yet somehow less than 100 is just peachy, eh? A sign of health or

You have a medical condition: HIV infection.

Evidence? None.

Just now Frodlet still hides behind a sock while finally saying what
he was too much of a coward to say signing his own name.

The drugs ARE toxic and can have side effects--sometimes mild,
sometimes horrible.

AIDS is worse.

The drugs are overpriced. Pharma is committing the genocide by denying
access and stealing everyone's money.

Drugs come into play long after the sex (that put you needing drugs).
Never a word about the personal behavior that condemned you to a life
needing drugs.

I didn't know you were capable of smiling, given the amount of hate

Sex does not necessarily require the use of drugs. Infections
associated with sex may, however.

I passed on your first reference to that shooting.
It is  truly a faggot ploy to compare that to wantingly
and knowingly getting involved in risky sexual behavior.

You are a low-life faggot to the nth degree.

No one said that was required.

That's why there's safer sex to reduce risk of infection.

That's a lie and you know it. You have swallowed the misinformation of
the aberrant lab tech, Giraldo, hook line and sinker without letting
the information pause for the slightest digestion in your credibility
organs.
http://www.aidstruth.org/howimmunoassayswork.php

The original tests were diluted, as are almost every antibody test
known to science. Current HIV tests use dilutions between 1:10 to
1:1000. Some tests for other pathogens use much higher dilutions than
these.
The original tests were pretty accurate even by today's standards, but
since then have just become more so.

You keep saying that, even though administrative/bureaucratic decisions
have nothing to do with medicine or science.

If you're <100 CD4s, are you at least on OI prophylaxis?

I keep mentioning it to highlight the absurdity of the reasoning
behind HIV and AIDS.

Are you suggesting that AIDS isn't defined by medicine or science?

>If you're <100 CD4s, are you at least on OI prophylaxis?

Well, yes, on the face of it a CD4<100 count doesn't look too good.
However these things tend to bounce around a bit, CD4's home is
elsewhere, and perhaps I just don't need much of it floating aimlessly
around in my blood at the moment.

Oh, and to get my CD4 count done I have to get up six hours earlier
than usual, and put up with an unpleasant two hour drive to the clinic
and back.  It's a long story, but the extra stress it causes me
probably doesn't do my CD4 count much good.

Oh, and I also use poppers which probably doesn't do my immune system
very much good.  Perhaps I should stop using it for a week or two
before my next blood test. :)

There is no "reasoning behind HIV and AIDS" on a governmental level.
One can say crime doesn't exist because the justice systems between the
two countries are different.

It's not just that.

One of them is desparate for attention, any kind of attention.  Even
though it's negative (except for the applause of his socks),* he gets it
from this group.

*it's true, though, some of them go against the core personality, but

Yes. HIV is a benign retrovirus which is non-pathogenic.  HIV has been
sequenced (cloned).

There is a problem with isolating it as a pure culture however, as it
has never been isolated separately from cellular debris.

The Perth Group has been the major advocates questioning the existence
of HIV based on lack of Electron microscopy evidence of purified
culture material.

> >DoesHIVcause (or lead to)AIDS?

No it does not. Death from immune suppression is caused by various
immune suppresssive drugs and chemicals including the anti-HIV drugs
such as AZT.  HIV has never been shown to directly kill CD4 cells.
Although the NIH bulletins claim that HIV infection causes AIDS, this
is in fact false for the last 20 years ever since it was announced by
Gallo at the 1984 NIH press conference.

So at least you recognize that the Perth group is full of sh.t. That's
a start.

But here we disagree. HIV is quite clearly pathogenic.

There is AMPLE research showing that HIV results in CD4 depletion.
