What if everything you thought you knew about AIDS was wrong?

The first time I heard about HIV/AIDS connection being a lie, I thought some people were trying too hard to find conspiracies everywhere. But I’ve been coming across much material during the last 8 years and I have to admit some of them make very good sense. I am not a doctor but I know that it is not very wise to leave our health completely in the hands of professional doctors. There are far more medical scandals than it takes to be suspicious of modern doctors. So we have to judge things by ourselves. In the last 8 years I have come across many books, some websites, listened to radio interviews, saw videos and talked to many people about the HIV/AIDS story. Here is what I find pretty possible at this moment.

AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) exists. Nobody has any doubt about it. It is a condition which causes a person’s immune system to collapse to the point that it attacks itself. What is questionable is the relation between HIV and AIDS. Is AIDS caused by a virus? Is it a transmittable disease? To answer this we have to start from the very beginning.



During the ‘70s there were many medical institutions hopefully conducting research for a cure for cancer. They have developed some medicine that would kill most cancer cells but as a side effect would also kill the patients. One of these drugs was called AZT and the side effects were so bad that it was soon banned. The cancer research came to a relative standstill after the development of what we cal chemo-therapy today. Some cancer research institutions lost their grants and they started to stop operations.

In the meantime the use of “illegal” drugs were on a very quick rise in the west after the Vietnam War. There were all sorts of new drugs, the full effects of which were not really known. The generation that was born after the second world war and fed with all sorts of poisonous pesticides, chemical fertilizers and food additives were now being given heavy drugs.

The first people who showed symptoms of total immune system crash were some men from the San Francisco gay community. They were all habitual users of a drug known as puppers. This drug was common in the gay community and was known to directly kill immune cells.

And then there was Dr. Gallo, a medical doctor who was once banned from the profession because of fraud and who later "discovered" HIV and made a fortune with 47 AIDS-related patents he’s still holding. He and his colleagues took blood samples from 6 men with AIDS, mixed it with some cancer blood and added some chemicals. This caused a reaction which created an anti-body which they named HIV, Human Immunodeficiency Virus. By this procedure they never isolated a virus, they only found an antibody. Before they published any research showing the link between HIV and AIDS they started selling HIV test kits. Dr. Gallo never said HIV is the cause of AIDS, he said it is the “probable” cause of AIDS.

Antibodies are our bodies’ reaction to intruders. When we catch a virus our bodies react by creating the antibody particularly suited to fight that virus. Certain different reasons may result in the same antibody being created. Doing this is the responsibility of our immune system. When the immune system is disrupted it either fails to react to intruders or attacks the body itself. The immune system is kept running by the food we take and is pretty sensitive to toxins. Taking drugs (legal or illegal), having an unhealthy diet lacking in certain nutrients and starvation can create the collapse of the immune system.

After their theory about AIDS being a viral disease, the same institutions which had failed in cancer research started to work on a cure for AIDS. As a possible cure they re-started giving AZT to patients. Today most of the symptoms of AIDS are exactly the symptoms of the side effects of AZT. The medical industry completely fell in love with this new epidemic and started making big money selling HIV test kits and poisonous drugs all around the world. Same chemical companies which are responsible for most of the toxins in our food, water and air started to cover the consequences of this with the perfect epidemic.


If there were no viruses causing AIDS there would be no tests and no drugs, we would only need to change our lifestyles and habits. But that wouldn’t be profitable for the corporates. Some completely new standards were developed solely for HIV – AIDS connection. For example, in medical test kits, there are solutions which have to be diluted 3-4 times to give results. In HIV tests, the kits are so potent that it has to be diluted 400 times, or else everyone tests positive. This is one reason why there are so many people in Africa who test positive. The HIV test is the only test in the world, in which you can test positive in one country and negative in another. Of course, there is AIDS in Africa because of malnutrition and other reasons but it is not a viral, transmittable disease. And you can test HIV+ even when you do not carry HIV if you have one of 64 conditions ranging from flu, tuberculosis, malaria and hepatitis to rheumatoid arthritis and pregnancy.

During the 70s and 80s the Nestle company killed hundreds of thousands babies in Africa by “educating” mothers that their breast milk is not good enough for their babies and that they have to use the baby food formulas. Many babies died when they contracted diseases from the water the formulas were prepared with (in Africa, traditionally babies are not given any extra liquids apart from breast milk). When the babies got sick they couldn’t restart breast-feeding because their milk had dried and in most cases they couldn’t afford to go on with the baby food formula. Many of the surviving babies later died because of undeveloped immune systems due to lack of breast feeding. Today there is a similar scenario being staged in Africa. When a mother tests HIV positive she’s immediately cut from breast-feeding her babies, which in turn creates more people with deficient immune systems likely to develop AIDS.

After we have all been scared that “in so many years half the world will have AIDS” we realized that it is not at all spreading in the predicted speed. In fact it’s spread is similar to the spread of HIV tests. With the fear campaign, medical companies invite everyone to take the test and recruit more patients to sell their drugs to. The theory that it was a sexually transmittable disease (STD) came to be highly unlikely in the light of the spread statistics and some recent research. There were some researches conducted on couples in Africa and in the west over ten years to see how sexually transmittable HIV was. Normally the likelihood of passing an STD during a single sexual intercourse is 40-60%. In the case of a man who has tested HIV+ having sexual intercourse with a woman, the chances of HIV passing on to her is 1 in 1.000, which is one chance of getting “infected” in over 6 years if you are making love 3 times a week. In the case of a woman passing HIV to a man, the chances are 1 in 10.000, which is a once in a lifetime chance. These researches show that HIV is not sexually transmittable as we are commonly made to believe.

And then there is the drug market. There are 3 companies that hold the patents of all AIDS medicines worldwide and they keep their prices unreasonably high which in turn becomes a huge burden on the economies of growing countries in Africa and elsewhere. In 2007 when a pharmaceutical company from Thailand refused to produce a much cheaper alternative to the imported AIDS medicines, Thailand was held responsible in World Trade Organization for patent violations but later won the court case which made it possible to first time produce cheap AIDS medicines. The attitude of the WTO on the face of a pandemic effecting tens of millions of people shows what is at stake in the AIDS business. South African president Thabo Mbeki became the first world leader to call for a proper research to the causes of AIDS and declared that Africa is being held in a questionable economic grip by the pharmaceutical companies.


Today HIV and AIDS almost always pronounced together as HIV/AIDS as if they are so closely related. But it is very well known fact that not all people who test HIV+ have AIDS and almost 40% of the people with AIDS have normally functioning immune systems. Many people who refuse to take the deadly AIDS medicines, go on with their lives and in some cases be completely healed by natural medicines. AIDS is not the end of the road unless you are already very sick but the AIDS medicine can be.

Because the field of AIDS is so foggy, there are also quite a few other theories which you may like to consider. One of them which is in circulation for quite a while draws attention to the act that US government was spending hundreds of millions of dollars for biologic weapons during the 15 years before the discovery of AIDS and Dr.Gallo was a project officer for Bionetics Inc. which was responsible for the research. Their target as stated in earlier documents is to create a virus the definition of which is very similar to the definition of HIV. Another theory sees the whole scam as a conspiracy to suppress homosexual and African people. There are few other pieces of pretty interesting information out there in case you want to discover the issue from all sides.


We are responsible to educate ourselves and spread the word of truth. On this site you can find some resources on the truth about AIDS and also here. You can see an award winning film on this issue titled The Other Side of AIDS - How positive are you? There is an informative interview on Radio CII website (part 1, part 2, mp3 format, 41 min. total). These books are worth reading (1, 2, 3)

We have to take responsibility for our own health and educate ourselves properly before accepting any point of view on issues concerning our health. This is just an attempt to inspire personal research on such issues.

May all beings be healthy.

Disclaimer:

I’m not a doctor or have any education in the field of modern medicine. I also do not have personal experience with the above mentioned sickness. What I suggest here should be no reason for anyone to not to consider professional assistance. If you suspect you have any sickness (e.g. AIDS) it is up to you to choose the course of action to heal yourself. What I am suggesting here is not to refuse modern medicine on this issue but to have a more holistic view on the subject. May you always be well and happy.
