Plus they have a tendency to "do what the doctor"(i.e. western medicine)says. Remember a decade ago or so when African women were giving that toxic baby formula sold by some multinational corporation to their kids, instead of breast-feeding them? And then the kids would die from ingesting this formula.... There are something like 30 different old diseases associated with the syndrome given the name of AIDS...if you're starving (i.e., suffering severe weight loss) and test HIV positive, then you are considered to have the syndrome called AIDS,...if you have a yeast infection in your throat and test positive then it is assumed that you have the syndrome called AIDS...etc, etc...Without the positive test results(which actually tests for antibodies to the virus - which indicates that the immune system has successfully "corraled" the virus)you can have all the syndrome symptoms, but you won't be classified as having AIDS...A lot of this type of classification goes on in Africa...where general ill health is rampant from inadequate nutrition alone... I've been aware of AIDS since 1983-84 ( I used to work for a news organization....so we had the latest and greatest comin' in over the teletype...24/7)and I keep waitin' for this big epidemic to take place...somethin' akin to the flue epidemic of 1918: I quote: "Worldwide, the flu epidemic killed 20 million to 40 million people. In the United States, estimates place the death toll at 500,000 to more than 675,000. As a comparison, fewer than 300,000 Americans lost their lives serving in the armed forces during World War II." This all occured in a time frame of about 3 months... For some reason they kept finding all these Haitians who tested HIV positive...back in 1984. They kept sayin' that Haiti was gonna be an island devoid of humans in a couple of years...Well, here we are 16 years later...and...? KRICO
