Hi Regine,
Having been a collecor during that time, I can verify from personal
information I read (I believe in sky and telescope) that the people did
think it was a cure from heaven for aids and ground it up and used it
in that form.
One small stone also struck a boy in the head (hammer stone). A few
buildings where damaged from the fall.

Quoting Regine Petersen <[email protected]>:
Hi all,
there is a story circulating on the locals of Mbale having eaten
meteorite powder in the belief it was a divine cure for Aids. Can
anyone back that up with a source / more details?
Thanks,
R.
