CATACLYSMICALLY Bad Science

Crumbling of the AIDS-dissidents!

matthias rathThis unpublished chapter of Bad Science by Ben Goldacre finally shed light on Matthias Rath's reign of terror on the AIDS epidemic in South Africa.  Rath, Thabo Mbeki, the President of South Africa at the time, Health Minister, Manto Tshabalala-Msimang and others were part of the "AIDS-dissidents," who claimed that homeopathic methods (WITHOUT antiretroviral drugs) cured AIDS.  Thanks to my facebook-friend Michael from Oz for forwarding this info to me, totally enlightening and horrific at the same time.  Unfortunately this is a true story...

Yes what a monster, he actually wanted to give vitamins to people with AIDS in South Africa.

Did you know that Bees have AIDS. it is what is killing them. They are getting it from GM crops, like the main food crop of South Africa maize - who knows maybe there is a correlation.

Hi, I am from South Africa. Thabo Mbeki was not saying that homeopathic remedies can cure AIDS, he was saying that many people in South Africa are malnourished which can give a false positive result for HIV. Mal nourishment produces the same anti-bodies as the HIV virus. When you test for HIV you are testing for anti-bodies not the virus. So if you are malnourished when you get tested, it can say you have HIV when you don't. Now imagine giving a malnourished person ARVs - they would not live long - right? I mean you know how hectic they are.

To top it off, recent studies have found the bees around the world that are dying is a result of the GM crops which gives them AIDS. You see the GM crop is highly pestilent resistant, so the food it produces has a lot more poison it it. This weakens the immune system of the bees which gives them AIDS and is killing rapidly. The largest staple food crop of South Africa is maize and it is a GM crop - perhaps there is a correlation.

There must be some reason why 500 thousand South Africans out of 50 million are on ARVs, as opposed to 500 Japanese out of 125 million, or what do you think?Why are there so many South Africans on ARVs - maybe it is because of the malnutrition, which could be caused by poverty and GM food.
