Author and scientist Dr Henry Bauer invites reviews of his book “The Origin, Persistence and Failings of HIV/AIDS Theory” (McFarland 2007) at WikiChecks.
I was led through a by-the-way remark in a “dissident” HIV/AIDS book, and subsequent astonishment as I looked at the original source, to collect essentially all the published data on HIV tests in the USA. The demographics are stunningly regular, during more than two decades. The rates of positive tests, in any given group, vary uniformly with age, sex, and race, and the geographic distribution has remained unchanged; moreover it’s the same for different “risk” groups: blood donors, gay men, injecting drug abusers, military personnel. As to race, the differences are close to quantitative, roughly Asian 0.3–0.6 with White arbitrarily 1; Native American ~1.5, black more than 5. As to age, “HIV+” rates increase from adolescence into middle age and then decrease again; males test HIV+ more often than females except in the early teens.
Global data show the same regularities as to age, race, and geoography.
No infectious agent is distributed so regularly and without variation over time.
That’s the essence of the case in Part I of my book, “The Origin, Persistence and Failings of HIV/AIDS Theory” (McFarland 2007), but the book also reviews in Part II the history of mis-steps in medical science to illustrate that mainstream consensus can be quite wrong, and Part III recounts crucial steps by which HIV/AIDS went wrong. The book’s web-page, http://failingsofhivaidstheory.homestead.com/, has links to published reviews of the book, all favorable (as are those at amazon.com); relevant articles, news items, and seminars; and errata (so far, pleasingly few). Three of the articles downloadable as PDFs contain much of the demographic data in Part I of the book.
I’ve been blogging at http://hivskeptic.wordpress.com to illustrate how the book’s viewpoint stands up to recent news items and scientific publications, and through that came upon another data set that disproves the mainstream contention that there is a latent period of about 10 years between “infection by HIV” and AIDS. The same data set, deaths from “HIV disease” since 1987 (disaggregated by age and race and sex), shows that antiretroviral treatment has been of no life-extending benefit, again contrary to mainstream contentions; details at “HIV DISEASE” IS NOT AN ILLNESS,
http://hivskeptic.wordpress.com/2008/03/19/“hiv-disease”-is-not-an-illness/, and article in press, and Powerpoint presentation at http://aras.ab.ca/index.php, under News for June 30.

Thanks for sharing this here. There’s plenty of information available out there, also for people who aren’t so interested in numbers:

I’m trying to get people to demand/support/arrange objective scientific debates about this topic. I’ll start an online petition soon.
Sadun Kals last blog post..HIV/AIDS Hypothesis - Medical Industrial Complex?
Although this isn’t about questioning the HIV theory it’s relevant both to AIDS and GW. Insiders from the AIDS industry admit that they exaggerated the predictions to scare the public and manipulate them:

A quote:
“… a comprehensive exposure of the hollowness of the claims of the AIDS bureaucracy for the efficacy of their preventive campaigns. He provides numerous examples of how exaggerated claims for the scale of the HIV epidemic (and the risks of wider spread) in different countries and contexts enable authorities to claim the credit for subsequently lower figures, as they ‘ride to glory’ on curves showing declining incidence. As he argues, ‘HIV prevalence is low in most populations throughout the world and can be expected to remain low, not because of effective HIV prevention programmes, but because… the vast majority of the world’s populations do not have sufficient HIV risk behaviours to sustain epidemic HIV transmission’. ”
20 years later they admit it, still noone cares of course… Is this the future of global warming scare..? It seems likely that Al Gore will one day claim that we made it thanks to his efforts, while there never was an “epidemic” in the first place…

A quote:
“…The power of such a method to force changes in cultural values is based on careful manipulation of fear. Ideally, health promotion messages should heighten an individual’s perceptions of threat and his or her capacity to respond to that threat, thus modulating the level of fear… The level of fear invoked should be sufficient to create awareness of a potential problem but not so high as to evoke denial. Similarly, the fear level should be low enough that it can be effectiveIy managed by the adoption of the desired behavior…”
Prostitution of science indeed. And all this manipulation of fear sources also from panic induced by a theory that is based on fraudulent papers… Such a waste, with devastating consequences…
I share your concerns. Now it looks like we are being primed to expect 10 years of cooling while maintaining the global warming fear. http://www.futurepundit.com/archives/005177.html.
Isn’t this another of a long list of scares? Very few have turned out to be important.
