I believe he is probably talking about the following that occured in Japan ( http://www.sumeria.net/aids/lubejob.html ): Our next occurence is Japan where an outbreak of immune suppression occured between 1955 to 1978 called SMON (subacute myelo optico neuropathy). Like our preceeding examples, SMON was thought to have been caused by a virus but, after 20 years and many deaths, was traced to a prescription drug called clioquinol, a medication for stomach upset. Clioquinol contained 8-hydroxy-quinoline, a benzene derivative. This drug was prescribed for stomach upset but actually caused it, requiring higher and higher doses, thus insuring more eposure to the toxin. The symptoms were: abdominal pain, fever, rash, diarrhea, neuropathy, weight loss, skin lesions, retinitis leading to blindness, fatigue, paralysis, and pneumonia. (31) These symptoms are, of course, almost the same as the other conditions looked at. See also http://asp.african-institute.org/articles.asp?Indeks=162 Clioquinol the drug that caused the SMON epidemic in Japan, is benzene related. Thus it was banned in Japan for creating polio like diseases. It killed around 11,000 people, leaving others blind, lame and spastic. With thousands healthy Africans and other people taking Clioquinol the manufactures should be asked to remove Benzene related drugs from the global market and end the Biowarfare (AIDS) against the people of the earth. It is time to speak up against the cruel biological warfare that sympathises only with giant business. http://www.sumeria.net/aids/whatif.html In this case, subacute-myelo-optico-neuropathy (SMON) also was thought to be caused by a virus. After 20 years and countless deaths, researchers discovered the true cause of SMON: the chemical clioquinol, which was sold in Japan to treat upset stomachs. When ingested, it actually induced the same upset stomach. Thus, more was prescribed and ingested, perpetuating the vicious cycle. > > I know of no evidence whatsoever to support this shocking statement. > I think it is very dangerous misinformation. Why is is shocking? We all know that medicines that are suppose to cure one thing will often cause another thing. This was what caused the Hatian AIDS outbreak as well. > > Young people who have many "Sekkusu Tomo" (sex friends), and who don't > use condoms (sales are plummeting even as the AIDS rate rises) are > clearly the ones at risk for AIDS and related diseases, which include > several new and nasty types of hepatitis. AIDs is a symptom caused by many things. One of the primary causes is benzene and benzene containing substances such as clioquinol But these cases in Japan that I have read about that have high AIDS rates has nothing to do with sex, condoms, or even a virus, it has to do with benzene substances.
