Repeat a lie often enough and people will believe it*
The Canadian Broadcasting Center (CBC) is doing what the mainstream media does so well for AIDS apologists: repeating inaccurate headlines without reading or thinking: Premature Aging of the Brain Seen in HIV Patients That is simply not what this study reports, and I blogged about it just a few days ago here. It is…

This is your brain on AIDS drugs
Remember 2004 and 2005? The years you couldn’t walk without falling and spraining your ankles? You could no longer climb the stairs in your home without dropping to your hands and knees, and could only come back down by crawling backwards?

LOTTI: Take a vacation from AIDS drugs
The LOTTI study, based in Italy, found that patients taking highly active anti-retroviral treatment (HAART) for HIV/AIDS who took a “vacation” from drug treatment fared as well as those who remained on their drugs continuously.
This study offers a desperately needed offer of hope for those in treatment who cannot tolerate the AIDS drugs’ toxicity, or who want to avoid know side effects such as disfigurement and organ failure. -
The Village Voice buries the bodies
. I’ve recently gotten to know Liam Scheff personally. He is a compassionate man who takes his role as an independent journalist seriously. Now, he has is the focus of attacks by the media because he exposed the painful and horrifying story of forced drug trials on orphans in New York City. I am…

Marketing AID$ is big bucks (updated)
It is not just about saving lives or finding a cure. It’s very much about making money, and AIDS treatments have long been considered a global marketing opportunity. Mainstream AIDS proponents hate to have this issue brought up and would like to pretend that no one is getting rich from the current test-everyone-and-give-them-drugs public…
