the inhaled nitrites produced nitrosamine known for its carcinogenic effects—Thomas Haley of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued the same warning.81
substance abuse was so universal among AIDS patients that drug use, and not Dr. Fauci’s virus, must be considered the primary cause of AIDS.86
Burroughs Wellcome and other popper manufacturers were the principal sources of advertising revenues to the gay press during that epoch, and they used that leverage to force censorship of any journalist attempting to link amyl nitrite to immune system collapse.
If Duesberg is right, AIDS is an iatrogenic (doctor-caused) pandemic, and Dr. Fauci would be its author. It wouldn’t be the first one. Historically, there are many examples of prescribed medicines causing worse injuries than their target disease. The notorious Tuskegee Experiment (1932–1973), which my uncle, Senator Ted Kennedy, exposed and ended in 1973, began as an effort by public health regulators to unravel which syphilis symptoms were from the spirochete bacterium and which were from the mercury “cure” that doctors had, by then, been prescribing for more than 500 years. As it turned out,

Joseph Sonnabend said, ‘AZT is incompatible with life.’ Well, if it’s incompatible with life, it’s a poison and if it’s a poison that kills people, in context like that, it is murder.”107
His views on AZT were unequivocal. “We virtually killed a whole generation of AIDS patients without even noticing it because the symptoms of the AZT intoxication were almost indistinguishable from AIDS,”116

the medical community has failed “to acknowledge complicity in poisoning hundreds of thousands of human beings. The illness and death that resulted from high AZT doses administered in the 1980s and 1990s is irrefutable.”123
I do not know where the evidence is for the claims that you see in New York Times or on CNN, or wherever you see it that people are living longer, better lives as a consequence of taking these drugs.”124
In an era when Christian conservatism was so powerful that it credibly claimed to have put Ronald Reagan in the White House, ideology and medical opinions attributing the “gay disease” to orgies and excess partying tended to feed anti-gay bigotry. The gay community, therefore, happily endorsed Dr. Fauci’s one-bug theory.
Blind faith in Saint Anthony Fauci may go down in history as the fatal flaw of contemporary liberalism and the destructive force that subverted American democracy, our constitutional government, and global leadership.

It was becoming increasingly challenging to credibly claim that HIV, which remained dormant for decades within its host, could somehow suddenly become virulent—“the most deadly disease in history”—without some external provocation.
While HIV was never shown to be cytocidal, HHV6 had a murderous affinity for CD4 and T-cell “in potential effects on the immune system and brains.” Gallo declared that HHV6 was a major source of disease progression in AIDS.135,136
Charles Ortleb told me that Gallo’s study “struck me as being backwards. If Gallo’s new DNA virus explains the ‘total annihilation’ of T-4 cells, why would it need a cofactor? The ‘cofactor’ in this mystery would have to be HIV, not HHV-6.” Some scientists had similar reservations. HHV6 didn’t seem to need a retrovirus wingman.
Knox and Carrigan found that every AIDS patient had active replication of HHV-6A in every stage of AIDS, from their diagnosis to their autopsies, with many having CD4+ cell counts over 700. With HHV-6A, there were none of the bewildering questions about how a seemingly benign retrovirus could possibly cause all that carnage. “It’s also much more destructive. . . . It kills very well, and it destroys tissue very well. It can infect the brain, the lungs, the lymphoid organs, and the bone marrow.”
“Where we have seen HHV-6A in tissue, we see dead tissue. And where you see . . . HIV alone . . . you don’t see dead tissue.
Knox parroted the obligatory language that HHV-6 was acting in concert with HIV. That language would preserve her from reputational and financial suicide.
NIH quickly cut off funding for Knox and for anyone else who wanted to research HHV-6.
That summer, Italian researcher Dario Diluca published his findings in the Journal of Clinical Microbiology, reporting HHV-6 in the lymph nodes of 22 percent of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients and only 4 percent of healthy people. This research raised the possibility that AIDS, which affects gay men, is the same disease as CFS, which became widespread in heterosexuals and in virtual lockstep with AIDS in the early 1980s.145
epiphenomenon.
Gallo’s discovery and Knox’s revelations suggested that the new human herpesvirus HHV-6 might be a critical causative cofactor shared by both AIDS and CFS.
When Gallo and Lusso conducted a trial treating half their AIDS patients with acyclovir—a remedy against herpes—and half with AZT alone, they found a significant prolongation of life in the patients who had AZT and acyclovir, as opposed to AZT alone.149
These kinds of findings threatened to derail and discredit Anthony Fauci’s entire HIV/AIDS paradigm.
He choked off any further funding for HHV6 research, despite Knox’s potentially lifesaving discovery of the efficacy of acyclovir against AIDS.
At the June 1990 San Francisco AIDS conference, Luc Montagnier made his tectonic announcement that “The HIV virus is harmless and passive, a benign virus.”160, 161 He added that he had discovered that HIV only becomes dangerous in the presence of a second organism. He described a tiny, bacteria-like bug called a mycoplasma. His laboratory had demonstrated that in culture with his new mycoplasma, HIV becomes a vicious killer.
Between 1981 and 2020, US taxpayers alone shelled out $640 billion for AIDS research173, 174 focused almost exclusively on developing drugs to address Dr. Fauci’s sketchy HIV hypothesis.

perquisites.
when the HIV/AIDS hypothesis is finally recognized as wrong, the entire institution of science will lose the public’s trust, and science itself will experience fundamental, profound, and long-lasting changes.
As Kary Mullis says in his book Dancing Naked in the Mind Field, “What people call science today is probably very similar to what was called science in 1634. Galileo was told to recant his beliefs or be excommunicated. People who refuse to accept the commandments of the AIDS establishment are basically told the same thing.”178
Duesberg
Nobody believed in him because what he was doing was overturning generally held views. They felt betrayed. . . . You don’t just stand up and say everybody is wrong.”179
“The Nazi medical experiments
Although the ‘experiments’ were conducted by fewer than two hundred murderous quacks—
their criminal work was known to thousands of leading physicians of the Reich, not a single one of whom, so far as the record shows, ever uttered the slightest public protest.”
“Science advances one funeral at a time.” —Max Planck
During the government/industry polio vaccine experiments of the 1950s–1960s, US vaccinologists like Hilary Koprowski and Stanley Plotkin worked with Belgian colonial authorities in the Congo to recruit millions of Black African child “volunteers” for dozens of mass-population trials with experimental vaccines that were perhaps considered to be too risky to test on white children.

Fauci is a master at marketing himself and his Institute and leveraged AIDS to generate huge appropriations from Congress to the NIH.
According to an exposé by the Associated Press, “In all, 916 current and former NIH researchers are receiving royalty payments for drugs and other inventions they developed while working for the government.”9 That investigation concluded that scientists and administrators at the National Institutes of Health flagrantly disregard ethical and legal requirements of financial disclosure.
Pharma’s ethics quickly pervaded and corrupted NIAID’s culture. The agency routinely overlooked and often sanctioned and engaged in routine manipulation of science to “prove” efficacy of dangerous and ineffective drugs.
In 2004, investigative journalist Liam Scheff chronicled Dr. Fauci’s secretive experiments on hundreds of HIV-positive foster children at Incarnation Children’s Center (ICC) in New York City and numerous sister facilities in New York and six other states between 1988 and 2002.11 Those experiments were the core of Dr. Fauci’s career-defining effort to develop a second generation of profitable AIDS drugs as an encore to AZT.12
Vera Sharav spent years investigating Dr. Fauci’s torture chambers as part of her lifelong mission to end cruel medical experimentation on children.
BBC’s heartbreaking 2004 documentary, Guinea Pig Kids,21 chronicles the savage barbarity of Dr. Fauci’s science projects from the perspective of the affected children.
“I found the mass grave at Gate of Heaven cemetery in Hawthorne, New York,” she told me. “I couldn’t believe my eyes. It was a very large pit with AstroTurf thrown over it, which you could actually lift up. Under it one could see dozens of plain wooden coffins, haphazardly stacked. There may have been 100 of them. I learned there was more than one child’s body in each.

NIAID’s narrative, at that time, was that these children were among the doomed as they ‘had AIDS,’ so supposedly they were all going to die anyway.
failure to protect the rights and safety of foster children, particularly during the perilous Phase I stages in which drug companies determine toxicity effects by exploring maximum tolerance levels.23
Another HIV Phase I vaccine trial, ACTG #230, tested two experimental vaccines, one by Genentech, another by Chiron/Biocine. This time, the protocol openly declared: “Accepts Healthy Volunteers.”38 As Solomon discovered, the “volunteer” subjects of that unethical experiment were newborns aged three days or less.39
