A letter to the LA Times re: Christine Maggiore, a mother's denial
Bravo to the LA Times for shedding some light, even if tainted, on the most underreported story of a generation -- the huge controversy in science: Is "HIV" the cause of "AIDS?" You need to fact check a little better. Apparently, we can't take government experts at their word. Not just pediatric, but total annual new cases of "AIDS" have been plummeting since the definition of "AIDS" stopped expanding on 1/1/93. CDC health education specialist Lampe's information is wrong. All of it. The total number of new US "AIDS" cases and totals in all subgroups, Blacks, Hispanic, women, children, gays, drug addicts, etc. have been on the decline for more than a decade. The "more than 40,000" Lampe refers to would have to be the number of people identified each year as "HIV-positive" and not new "AIDS" victims as she attests. If the information specialists are so gross misinformed, what can we expect from the public? To say we "are stuck" at this number implies that we wish it were more. But the truth is 20 years after we were told that over a million Americans were "infected" (and the virus was spreading like wild fire) we are just now crossing that million line. That certainly isn't my idea of an epidemic. But, what I'd like to know is, if the plummeting of pediatric "AIDS" is "one of the biggest public health and medical successes in the US," why haven't we been getting the good news? Why were there no headlines to announce that there were zero children diagnosed with "AIDS" in Los Angeles in 2003? Why does the average person still think the problem is getting worse and worse, when in actuality, it is dying out? If anyone is in denial it is the doctors and the "AIDS" establishment who fear losing face, losing control, and losing hundreds of billions of dollars by admitting their gross error. Only now, in an attempt to discredit the "contrarians," that the issue makes news, do the figures become public info and the spin doctors try to use it to their advantage. The federal health officials and "AIDS" experts who say that "HIV" unquestionably causes "AIDS" all have a vested interest in saying that. To say otherwise will destroy their careers, their income and ostracize them from their peers. But there are thousands of signatories to the Rethinking AIDS statement who believe otherwise, including many medical doctors and Nobel Prize winning scientists. Why were none of these doctors interviewed for this story? If, as Dr. Havens attests, the contrarian beliefs are "bogus baloney," why have the mainstream orthodoxy refused to open the subject to debate? On the one occasion that they agreed to do this, at a conference held by South African president, Thabo Mbeki, they later backed out of all debates and proposed studies and, instead, issued a decree. Talk about pseudoscience! Christine is villainized for breastfeeding her children, yet the World Health Organization recommends that "HIV-positive" mothers all over the world breastfeed exclusively for at least the first 6 months. Does it take the sad death of a beautiful child to do what intelligent, moral men and women have been unable to do for over 20 years and shed light on what may well be the greatest medical blunder in history? Anyone who doesn't believe that all the establishment doctors and all the government experts can be wrong, grossly underestimates the power of stupid people in large numbers. *I put "HIV" and "AIDS" in quotations marks to emphasize that everything we "know" about them is assumed and not proven. This is done in the style of the late Dr. William Holub who, in 1987, was among the first scientists to publicly scrutinize and contradict the virus theory of "AIDS." This was true then, and still is today.

If HIV is not the cause of AIDS, then why did Ms. Maggiore's 3 year old HIV-positive daughter Eliza Jane die of pneumocystis pneumonia? And more generally, if HIV is not the cause of AIDS, why are anti-HIV medications so effective in reducing HIV viral loads and raising T-cell numbers?
It has been shown there is a group of people who despite being infected, do not progress to illness, and you appear to be one of them. But don't confuse your own good fortune with bad science in the medical community. You may be one of the lucky ones -- but that doesn't mean that everybody else is wrong.
Lets just assume for a moment that AidsIsOver and Maggiore are completely correct in that HIV is benign and has nothing to do with AIDS, and that it's caused by bad diet and/or recreational drugs. It's a safe assumption that Christine wasn't making EJ huff poppers or shoot up meth. That leaves diet. Christine has some quirky concepts of diet. Quirky concepts of lots of things, actually. Although she doubts that HIV exists in the first place, and isn't harmful even if it does, she takes ozone "infusions", drinks gallons of carrot juice and other unusual stuff to "treat" her HIV. That's a contridiction in itself-if HIV doesn't exist or isn't harmful, why treat it? Bad diet can cause immune falure. Maybe EJ died because she simply wasn't getting the right nutrients. AidsIsOver will no doubt try and claim that it was the antibiotic that killed EJ, but she was quite sick before she ever was given the antibiotic, which by the way she got because Christine took EJ to the doc, got the perscription filled, and gave the pills to EJ herself, and wasn't at gun point to give the pills to EJ. It was her choice. One way or the other, EJ died of neglect. If HIV does cause AIDS, Christine neglected to be medicated. If HIV doesn't cause AIDS, Christine neglected to feed her daughter properly. If antibiotics cause AIDS, she neglected to withhold them. The kid was neglected one way or another.
