The Origin of AIDS Conference, London, 2000
In October 2000 the Royal Society of London held a two-day
conference on the origins of HIV. Needless to say, the man-made theory was not
discussed. One professor emphatically declared: "All human infectious diseases
have an animal origin." Hooper's polio theory was totally discredited; and
Hahn's new chimp theory, dating HIV back to the 1930s, was acclaimed.
The "Last Word" at the conference was that "all human viral
infections were initially zoonotic (animal) in origin. Animals will always
provide a reservoir for viruses that could threaten human populations in the
future." The scientists predicted: "There is still a myriad of current unknown
viruses in animal populations on land, sea, and air with the potential to cause
human disease." But what about the millions of dangerous virus created in animal
laboratories? That was never considered.
A person cannot contract AIDS from a monkey or chimp
In the July 2000 issue of Lancet, virologist and primatologist
Preston Marx states: "There is no evidence that a person can contract AIDS from
a monkey or chimpanzee". According to Marx, research shows humans were infected
with SIV (simian immunodeficiency virus) in Africa and that these SIV infections
were the root origin of HIV. Therefore SIV is the monkey ancestor virus of HIV.
And Marx has no doubt that HIV originated from SIV in African non-human
primates.
AIDS educators often claim that AIDS is a "zoonosis", meaning
a disease of animals that can be transmitted to humans, but Marx says this
assumption is incorrect. AIDS as a zoonosis would mean that humans had
contracted not only an SIV infection from a monkey or a chimp, but that they
also eventually became sick with AIDS from the monkey virus infection. We have
not established that AIDS is a zoonosis (meaning a disease people catch from
monkeys). He further declares "We do not know what launches animal viruses to
become epidemic in humans. There may be a social, viral-genetic or immunologic
basis for new epidemics. We do not have this answer for the AIDS epidemic, but
we do know that HIV originated from simian species."
In a more recent October 2004 article "AIDS as a zoonosis?
Confusion over the origin of the virus and the origin of the epidemic", Marx and
his colleagues further speculate that HIV (derived from a primate) in the 1950s
in Africa could have been made more dangerous and transmissible by dirty needles
used in vaccine programs, as well as contaminated blood transfusions. The
repeated passage from human-to-human (so called "serial passage") via SIV
virus-contaminated needles could have transformed a harmless SIV in humans to
the deadly and genetically-changed HIV virus causing AIDS.
Human exposure to SIV is thousands of years old, but AIDS
merged only in the 20th century. Marx never suggests that contaminated vaccines,
rather than needles, could have initiated the African epidemic. However, if AIDS
does not qualify as a zoonosis, I interpret this to mean that Hahn's "cut hunter
theory" could not account for the explosion of HIV/AIDS in Africa in the 1980s.
Finally, Marx's team suggests that more "research is needed to understand the
processes by which animal viruses cause sustained human-to-human transmission,
epidemics and even pandemics. Much is known about emerging viruses, but almost
nothing is known about emerging viral diseases."
WHO Murdered Africa?
Apparently forgotten, ignored, or unknown by Marx was a
similar vaccine and needle scenario reported on May 11, 1987, on the front-page
of The London Times, entitled "Smallpox vaccine triggered AIDS virus." Science
editor Pierce Wright suggested that African AIDS was a direct result of the
World Health Organization's smallpox eradication program conducted in the 1970s.
The smallpox vaccine allegedly awakened a "dormant" AIDS virus infection in the
black population. Gallo was quoted as saying, "The link between the WHO program
and the epidemic is an interesting and important hypothesis. I cannot say that
it actually happened, but I have been saying for some years that the use of live
vaccines such as that used for smallpox can activate a dormant infection such as
HIV (the AIDS virus)."
The Times report is one of the most important stories ever
printed on the AIDS epidemic; yet the story was killed and never appeared in any
major U.S. newspaper or magazine. However, the report is widely circulated on
the internet as evidence to suggest that AIDS appeared in Africa via accidental
or deliberate vaccine contamination with the AIDS virus. (Google: WHO murdered
Africa).
Kenyan ecologist and biologist Wangari Maathai was obviously
aware of this vaccine connection when she won the Nobel Peace Prize in October
2004, and shocked reporters by claiming the AIDS virus was a deliberately
created biological agent developed by evil-minded scientists and released in
Africa to cause mass extermination of blacks.
In Magic Shots [1982], Allan Chase claims that during the
years 1966-1977, the WHO utilized "200,000 people in forty countries -- most of
them non-doctors trained by seven hundred doctors and health professionals from
over seventy participating countries -- spent $300 million, and used forty
million bifurcated vaccinating needles to administer 24,000 million (2.4
billion) doses of smallpox vaccine." This is also proof of extensive needle
re-use.
There is absolutely no evidence to show that large numbers of
African blacks were "incubating" HIV, or any other primate/simian virus before
the outbreak. This is why the out of Africa idea is theory and not fact.
Despite this lack of evidence, the monkey/chimp and
primate/simian origin of HIV/AIDS is a well-accepted scientific theory. In
contrast, the man-made "introduction" of HIV in the late 1970s is condemned as
"conspiracy theory". Although taboo, the man-made theory refuses to go away, and
is alive and well on the internet. A google search, using the key words "man
made origin of AIDS," will elicit 1,220,000 citations to various web
sites.
HIV: Out of Africa? Or out of a virus
laboratory?
Precise answers to how AIDS originated depends on which
"expert" you ask. Montagnier points to the United States and gay men as the
source of the virus. Could the virus have been transmitted from chimpanzees to
humans? Montagnier says yes. But, he adds, humans could have transmitted the
virus to the chimpanzees! How could humans have transmitted the virus to chimps?
Unfortunately, the Frenchman did not elaborate on this.
Could HIV be a primate/simian virus originating in a virus
laboratory ? Such questions are never seriously proposed or answered by
virologists. However, well-known to insiders are the embarrassing contamination
problems with primate viruses which have plagued Gallo's lab at the NCI and
Essex's lab at Harvard.
A case in point is Gallo's reported 1975 "discovery" of a
"new" and "human" virus reported in scientific journals as "HL-23." This virus
was eventually proven to be not one, but three different ape viruses (gibbon-ape
virus, simian sarcoma virus and baboon endogenous virus). Gallo claims he has no
idea how these viruses contaminated his research.
Essex, who along with Gallo heavily promoted the erroneous
green monkey theory, had similar woes. In 1986 he announced the discovery of a
"new" human AIDS virus (HTLV-4). This "human" virus bore a striking similarity
to a monkey retrovirus known as STLV-3. In February 1988, the mystery was
solved. Essex's new "human" HTLV-4 virus turned out to be a monkey virus that
accidentally contaminated Essex's human blood samples. The source of the monkey
contamination was traced back to blood samples from a monkey that was
experimentally infected by an AIDS-like virus at the New England Regional
Primate Research Center in Southborough, Massachusetts. Carol Mulder of the
University of Massachusetts Medical School cautioned: "This episode should serve
as a strong warning for all virologists to check any newly discovered viruses
against viruses present in the laboratory."
In the decade before AIDS broke out in gay men, Essex created
"cat AIDS" in a series of experiments. In 1974, chimpanzee AIDS was also created
deliberately by feeding heavily virus-contaminated cows' milk to newborn chimps.
For the very first time, veterinarians were able to produce leukemia in chimps,
as well as a lung infection, later known as the "gay pneumonia" of AIDS. As
Montagnier should be aware, human cancerous tissue and blood was routinely
injected into primates as part of the Special Virus Cancer Program. Mysterious
AIDS-like illnesses also occurred in primate laboratories a few years before
AIDS. And chimp viruses also jumped species back in the 1960s when chimp kidneys
were experimentally transplanted into humans.
We are informed that the AIDS epidemic is the result of a
primate virus jumping species for the first time. However, polio vaccines given
to millions of people in the 50s and 60s were heavily contaminated with a
cancer-causing monkey virus called SV-40 (simian virus 40). Over the decades
various studies indicate this virus is implicated in several forms of human
cancer, although government scientists continue to deny any association. For a
complete analysis of this polio vaccine contamination, read (or google) The
Virus and the Vaccine [2004].
The man-made theory of AIDS proclaims that HIV was introduced
into American gays and African blacks via vaccine programs. Why is this theory
deemed paranoia by the media and the AIDS establishment? Why is discussionnot
allowed? Why have scientists suppressed the extensive history of animal cancer
virus transfer in the decade before AIDS?
Is there a scientific conspiracy to get scientists off the
hook by blaming monkeys in the bush, and gays and Africans, for the millions of
death brought about by the "introduction" of HIV into the world population? Of
course there is. That's why it's The Greatest Conspiracy Story Ever Told.
