The Secret Origin of AIDS & HIV by ALAN CANTWELL JR., MD Many people have heard the theory that AIDS is man-made. Thirty percent of New York City blacks polled by The New York Times (October 29, 1990) actually believe AIDS is an "ethnic weapon" designed in a laboratory to infect and kill black people. Some people even think the AIDS conspiracy theory is more plausible than the African Green monkey theory promoted by the leading AIDS scientists. Actually, the monkey theory was proven wrong by researchers as far back as 1988, but most AIDS educators continued to promote it to the public until recently. In a media blitz in 1999, the green monkey theory was totally replaced by the chimpanzee "out of Africa" theory, and the chimp origin of AIDS was fully accepted by the scientific community. A phylogenetic "family tree" of primate viruses (which few people could understand) was presented to prove that HIV was descended from a primate virus in the African bush. Analysis of virus genetic data performed by the "supercomputer" at Los Alamos in New Mexico indicated that HIV had "jumped species" from a chimp to a human around the year 1930 in Africa. Los Alamos is the official home of nuclear bomb-building, alleged Chinese spies, and the laboratory which directed secret human radiation experiments on unsuspecting civilians from the 1940s up to the beginning of the AIDS epidemic.) At the international AIDS conference held in 2000 in South Africa, one scientist claimed the chimpanzee virus (SIVcpz) was "ancient" and jumped species as early as 1675 but didn't establish itself in the human population until 1930. This was dutifully reported by science writer Laurie Garrett, who give all the time-honored reasons for the rapid spread of AIDS in Africa:

    These accusations were directed not just at homosexual men who were already believed to have the virus because of their sexual relationships,but also from Haitian immigrants. According to Sabatier, “Researchers proposed that AIDS began with an outbreak of African swine fever in Haitian pigs… Others suggested that a Haitian homosexual may have contracted the swine virus from eating undercooked pork and then passed it on to homosexual partners from the United States”(Farmer 224). This made Americans become very cautious of Haitian immigrants and made them not want to be around anyone who was Haitian in fear that they might contract the disease. One example of thiswas how a Haitian taxi driver in the United Statessaid “people would refuse to get in my cab when they discovered I was from Haiti”(Farmer 216).…

    In the 19th and 20th Century, the relationships between different parts of the globe changed more than ever before as advancements in technology altered cultures, increased communications between nations, created unparalleled levels of economic integration, or made the feel earth smaller. The politically developed countries harnessed colonialism, imperialism, soft power, and neoliberal power structures to take advantage of underdeveloped nations. Developed nations exploited them creating long lasing unequal power structures, which hurt these nations ability to effectively govern and develop. In the early stages of the HIV/AIDS crisis, the effect of the virus was ubiquitously debilitating across the developed and underdeveloped nations, yet as they began to find treatments the developed countries have disproportionally benefited from HIV/AIDS treatment.…

    “The Age of AIDS” by frontline is an apt study for two reasons. First it details the process of identifying a disease which was new and mysterious; second in doing so it gives us insight on how epidemiology plays an important role. This gives us an understanding of epidemiology and its basic concepts in force while executing this role. The objectives of epidemiology of identifying the cause of disease, in this case AIDS, extent to which it has penetrated. Finding records for similar cases for further investigation which would help in finding the origins of the disease. Evaluating preventive and therapeutic measures, in this case the drug “AZT” was monitored and after sometime was found ineffective, because the HIV virus had formed immunity to this drug. This was possible to know in short span of time due to accumulation of data from all the test cases and assessing them regularly. One other important objective of epidemiology was indirectly explained, the objective of providing foundation for developing public policy. The program implicitly tells how ignorance from government led to transforming a disease with no cure, to a disease with no hope. There is a difference in not having a cure and not having hope. When there is no cure, it can be due lack of medical advance, which in due time might and will catch up, to bring forth better preventive measure and possible cure. Now not having a hope is not as simple as it sounds. It implies being alone, reduced to utter dejection from society and feeling helplessness. In early days, neglected by government to avoid controversies, detested by religious groups, feared by masses for possible chance of infection, people with AIDS were reduced to such helplessness and utter dejection, which I am sure, might not have any equal. This was possible not only because of indifference from government, but is also reflected in ignorance of CDC by administration and also discrimination not just by conservatives but even by the then…

    “Every 9.5 minutes someone in the United States is infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).” According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), there are approximately 1.5 million people living with HIV, and one out of five is not aware they are infected (CDC, 2011). The first documented case of HIV was from a blood sample retrieved in 1959 from an individual residing in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. There is no information on how this individual became infected or how it was believed to have arrived in the United States in 1969. There are a number of stories on how this life-threatening disease came about and how it made it to the United States. There is also a story of hunters eating a contaminated chimpanzee in the western part of Africa. Recent studies show HIV may have traveled from monkeys to humans as far back as the late 1800s.…

    Current Event on Aids

    My current event is about how AIDS is the top cause for deaths in young women. In its first study of women's health around the globe, the World Health Organization said that the AIDS virus is the leading cause of death and disease among women between the ages of 15 and 44.Unsafe sex is the leading risk factor in. Throughout the world, one in five deaths among women in this age group is linked to unsafe sex, according to the U.N. agency. The data were included in a report that attempts to highlight the unequal health treatment a female faces from childbirth through infancy and adolescence into maturity and old age. WHO Chief Dr. Margaret Chan noted that women enjoy a biological advantage because they tend to live six to eight years longer than men. But in many parts of the world they suffer serious disadvantages because of poverty, poorer access to health care and cultural norms that put a priority on the well-being of men, she said. Chan called it a "preventable tragedy" that nearly 15 percent of deaths in adult women occur in maternity, according to the statistics from 2004.…

    To reflect on something is to understand it and I cannot truly say that I completely understand this book. I have seen death before and a lot of people I care about have died yet I cannot understand. Death is not always around me as it is with the people in this book. I never raised a family was I was ten years old like Tigist was forced to. At ten years old the worst thing that happened to me was my parents got divorced. When Tigist was ten years old her mother, father, and stepfather had all died. I cannot begin to understand any of that. I can read the book but I cannot understand it. I cannot imagine it either. Little children being left in the world with no parents or anyone to help them. To think I get nervous and barely survive when my mother goes away for a weekend. I cannot understand that world.…

    New Age spirituality is a relatively recent, Western concept. This form of spirituality often involves the appropriation of many ideas or practices found in older religions, such as meditation and asceticism, and merging them together in an ahistorical belief system. Most new age spiritualists see themselves as “gurus” and use terms and beliefs often found in Hinduism and Buddhism, to name a couple, to preach a holistic view of spirituality and divinity that finds its roots in the same religions. However, the “gurus” give no historical context apart from mentioning that they are using practices or divinities found in a, usually, Southeast Asian religion. Lawrence Edwards, a “recognized expert in the field of Kundalini, our innate power of…

    Syphilis is a disease that dates back to early times. The actual location that it originated is still debated. The main hypothesis about the origin of syphilis are recorded around the time that Christopher Columbus made his voyage to the New World and is referred to as the “Colombian theory.” This theory describes the disease as being brought back to Europe when his crews were returning back from America in 1492. It was shortly after this time that the first epidemic of syphilis was recorded in Naples. “In 1495 an epidemic of a new and terrible disease broke out among the soldiers of Charles VIII of France when he invaded Naples in the first of the Italian Wars, and its subsequent impact on the peoples of Europe was devastating – this was syphilis,…
