 RA Q&A

Rethinking AIDS welcomes questions regarding the scientific issues surrounding HIV and AIDS. Questions can be sent to correspondence@rethinkingaids.com.



Is there an effective treatment for prolonged yeast infection? - Friday, November 21, 2008
All these websites about how AIDS does not exist , however I have thrush right now and no amount of anti-fungal drug will get rid of it. I am not a diabetic, hell I haven't even had sex in ten years with anyone. No one can offer advice for the opportunistic infections I on occasion experience. No one answers e-mails, everyone just wants to push a narrow agenda and the hell with those who truly believe after twenty one years of being told their H.I.V. positive yet haven't been on anti-virals for over four years that they are not even worth going to the trouble of helping find some solution to recurrent yeast infection. I believe that aids is not what the CDC says it is, however something is going with my body that does seem to follow a lot of people with aids who have died.

Do AIDS Doctors Give Orders Or Advice? - Thursday, November 20, 2008
Doctors do not have the capacity to force you to do something unless you are a minor, the guardian or a minor, deemed mentally incompetent, or under some other kind of court order.

It is therefore normally choice whether you accept a doctor's statements as orders, recommendations or advice. Many people feel that medical professionals should be counsellors. The person who believes they are ill asks questions and the doctor gives advice which the questioner can accept, reject or suggest modifications to.

Taking charge of your health means having the confidence to assert your right to make your own decisions. When a doctor says you must start AIDS drugs because your CD4 counts are low, but you are familiar with literature that shows that some healthy people have CD4 counts, and you're not feeling sick, you may decide to reject this advice.

Are HIV Tests Accurate? - Thursday, November 20, 2008
What scientific evidence has convinced you that HIV tests are accurate? Did you know that even flu shots (and about 70 other situations) can cause false positive results? Have you thought about the consequences for you if the HIV test you received does not actually indicate that you are HIV infected?

I Just Found Out I'm HIV-Positive. Am I Going to Die? - Thursday, November 20, 2008
Did you realize that there is an entire scientific literature on LTNPs (Long Term Non-Progressors)? These people are defined as those who are HIV-positive but have lived healthy lives without AIDS drugs for a long time (usually over a decade)? There is very little information about how many such people there are. Obviously if it turned out that this was a significant percentage it would significantly reduce the likelihood that HIV-positive people would start AIDS drugs, particularly when healthy or with only relatively minor ailments.

Does HAART do more harm than good? - Monday, November 03, 2008
I am currently taking HAART, and after some research, it seems as though there are many questions if HIV is a threat to health. What do you say to someone who is contemplating stopping the medications? Can you really tell someone that HAART is doing more bad than good?

Please send me the citation for needle-exchange research - Monday, July 21, 2008
Re: A large study from Montreal, published in 1997, showed that consistent needle-exchange users faced a 10 to 22 times higher risk of becoming HIV-positive than those who never used clean needle exchanges.

Please send me the citation for this research.

Thanks ever so.

Any analysis of the recent announcement of a real-time video of HIV particles? - Sunday, June 15, 2008
Dear colleagues,

A recent announcement was made from Rockefeller University scientists who claim to have recorded a real-time video of HIV particles appearing in a cell and showing how HIV is generated hence concluding that  HIV does exist indeed.

It would be a matter of importance if some scientific analysis of this claim is made by the Rethinkers of Aids,  either to recognize that HIV would exist but is not the cause of AIDS, or that this Rockfeller video doesn't proove at all the existence of AIDS despite the impressive realism of the short video sequence showing  lighting particles supposed to be HIV particles.

Again, thanks for your courageous search of truth that can help in life savings by avoiding mis-prescribed toxic drugs and  providing new reasons for intelligence and hope in front of the macchiavelic seropositive condmanation.
