(CNNS, 02/01/99) -- Mainstream news outlets are releasing reports claiming that the HIV virus originated in "deepest, darkest Africa," a mysterious, far-away land with connotations of Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" and H. Rider Haggard's "King Solomon's Mines."
In the mysterious continent of Africa, experts now claim, mysterious black men ate chimpanzees. It is presumed that the chimpanzees eaten were uncooked. Or maybe the chimps were insufficiently cooked, say, medium-rare. The story is that the HIV virus was transmitted thereby, from the chimps, to the mysterious black chimp eaters. From there it made a mysterious and exclusive migration to the island of Haiti. From Haiti, the virus made another selective migration to a few U.S. cities, where it was selectively biased to males of ages 20 through 40.
A few facts worth mentioning:
(1) "We have not been able to discover any good reasons why most of the people on earth believe that AIDS is a disease caused by a virus called HIV. There is simply no scientific evidence demonstrating that this is true." -- Kary B. Mullis, Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1993. [Qtd. in Inventing The AIDS Virus by Peter H. Duesberg. Washington, DC: Regnery Publishing, Inc., 1996. ISBN: 0-89526-470-6.]
(2) Professor Peter Duesberg (UC-Berkeley), a virologist, agrees with Mullis: No one has ever proven that HIV causes AIDS. [Source: Duesberg's book, cited above.]
(3) AIDS doesn't "come from monkeys in Africa; the story gets more preposterous as we get into it." -- Dr. Robert Strecker, M.D. and virologist, ca. 1992.
(4) "A virus model of causation does not fit the scientific facts. Rather, multifactorial influences are the sine qua non of AIDS. [But the] multifactorial model is a threat to the well-being of the international pharmaceutical giants..." -- Jon Rappoport. [AIDS, Inc.: Scandal of the Century by Jon Rappoport. Human Energy Press, 1988. ISBN: 0-941523-03-9.]
(5) "Yet there is still no proof for the now [1990] six year-old hypothesis that HIV causes AIDS." -- John Lauritsen. [Poison By Prescription: The AZT Story by John Lauritsen. New York: Asklepios, 1990. ISBN: 0-943742-06-4.]
