Peter Duesberg

 

One of the most important whistle blowers is Dr. Peter Duesberg, professor of

molecular and cell biology at the University of California, Berkeley.

 

After studying the AIDS literature, Duesberg started questioning HIV in 1987. He

claims there is no virological, nor epidemiological, evidence to back-up the

HIV-AIDS hypothesis. Instead, the virus is biochemically inactive and harmless,

and AIDS is not behaving as a contagious disease, he says.

 

Over the years Duesberg has published a series of peer-reviewed papers in which

he debunks the HIV-AIDS dogma. He also came up with an alternative toxicological

explanation for the epidemic.

 

Here you find a biographic sketch.

 

Duesberg fought together with Dr. Robert Gallo in the war on cancer. An

introduction for Duesberg, by Gallo, can be found here.

 

Together with Bryan Ellison he wrote an article for Policy Review. It can be

found here. The published responses, and a reply by the authors here.

 

Here you find an interview from the (London) Times. Here another one from Spin.

 

The transcript of a lecture by Duesberg for the California Alumni can be found

here.

 

The first two parts of his AIDS-trilogy were published in the U.S. Proceedings

of the National Academy of Science. These papers can be found here and here.

Part three can be found here. An addition to these three papers, published in

Bio/Technology can be found here.

 

Duesberg's papers were throroughly peer reviewed but no flaw in fact or logic

could be found. Here a story about peer review.

 

One of the first official responses to his dissent can be found here. Another

one here.

 

A short debate with Gallo et al. was published in Science. Here and here you

will find the articles.

 

Here you will find Duesberg's Opus Magnus.

 

Go here for the first article about the drug-AIDS hypothesis, written together

with Dr. David Rasnick. And here for the second paper with Rasnick published in

1998 in Genetica.

 

Nature, after attacking him first, censored Duesberg a couple of times. Here a

story of censorship.

 

To silence Duesberg U.S. government officials even tried to bribe him. Read here

more about it.

 

Duesberg (co-)authored three books. 'Infectious AIDS: Have We Been Misled?'

which is a collections of his main papers. He is the editor of 'AIDS; Virus or

Drug Induced?', a compilation of dissident articles.

 

Duesberg's story can be read in 'Inventing the AIDS Virus'. The chapter on

antiviral therapies can be found here.

Robert Root-Bernstein

 

Dr. Robert Root-Bernstein, who held a MacArthur Prize fellowship from 1981 to

1986, is associate professor of physiology at Michigan State University.

Root-Bernstein, who made like Duesberg a thorough study of the AIDS literature,

has published several controversial articles.

 

He could also not find any evidence to back up the claim that HIV is the cause

of AIDS, that AIDS is a new disease, or that it is contagious. AIDS, according

to him a multi-causal condition, could also be caused by well known risk

factors.

 

An interview with Root-Bernstein can be found here

 

Here you will find his first AIDS review. Another one, published in Research in

Immunology, can be found here. Click here for a more recent paper published in

Genetica.

 

An article by Root-Bernstein about prostitutes and AIDS can be found here.

 

Two of his articles for The Wall Street Journal can be found here and here.

 

Root-Bernstein is the author of the book 'Rethinking AIDS; The tragic cost of

premature consensus'. An extract about the AIDS definitions can be found here.

The Perth Group

 

A group of medical scientists from Perth, Australia, is also questioning HIV and

AIDS. The team is headed by Dr. Eleni Papadopulos-Eleopulos, professor of

medical physics at Royal Perth Hospital, a teaching hospital at the University

of Western Australia. The group studied the AIDS literature too, and was able to

publish some of their findings.

 

The research team claims that HIV has never been isolated so far, and questions

the existence of the virus-entity. Here you find a summary of their views.

 

Here you will find the Continuum interview with Dr. Papadopulos.

 

The Perth Group presented their findings at the 12th World AIDS Conference in

Geneva. Go here for the presentation.

 

The review of the AIDS tests, published in Bio/Technology, can be found here.

Another controversial AIDS review was published in Genetica, you can find it

here. You will find their paper in which they show that Gallo never isolated HIV

here.

 

Dr. Valendar Turner, professor of emergency medicine at University of Western

Australia, is one of the other researchers. Click here for an interview with

him. Here you will find a talk by him about the HIV tests. For a talk about the

existence of HIV, go here. His article about were we have gone wrong can be

found here.

They published a paper showing that AZT can not work against HIV. Here you can

find it.

An article about the facts and fictions of AIDS in Africa can be found here. For

another paper on Africa, go here.

 

Other members of the team are: Dr. John Papadimitriou, a practicing pathologist

and professor at University of Western Australia's medical school. And Dr. David

Causer, senior physicist, head of medical physics, and professor at Royal Perth

Hospital.

Gordon Stewart

 

Dr. Gordon Stewart is professor emeritus of public health at Glasgow University,

and a former WHO adviser on AIDS.

 

Professor Stewart studied the epidemiology of AIDS in the U.K. and other

countries, and came also to the conclusion that AIDS is not a viral but a

multi-causal behavioral disease.

 

Some more background information about Stewart and his ideas on AIDS can be

found here.

 

Here you find a paper he published in Genetica.

 

Stewart wrote an article for the London Sunday Times. Here you can find it.

Another article by him was published in the U.K.'s Daily Mail, it can be found

here.

 

Here a more recent story about censorship.

Alfred Hässig

 

Dr. Alfred Hässig, (1921-1999) was professor emeritus in immunology at the

University of Bern, Director of the Swiss Red Cross Transfusion Service, and

President of the Board of Trustees of the International Society of Blood

Transfusion. With colleagues he formed the Study Group for Nutrition and

Immunity.

 

The Swiss research group doesn't believe that HIV causes AIDS either. According

to Hässig et al. AIDS is a multi-causal disease caused by severe stress.

 

Go here for an interview with Prof. Hässig.

 

Here a paper published in Continuum. Here you find another paper on stress and

AIDS. Here a paper on antibodies, and here one about T4 lymphocytes. An article

about protease inhibitors can be found here.
