Zika: Colombia cases in pregnant women double in a week

 http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-35450644

 Zika Virus and Classical Swine Fever virus are from the same family. Is there a link between the pig and human epidemics in Colombia?

"Mechanical transmission by vehicles and equipment, as well as by personnel (notably veterinarians) travelling between pig farms, are also significant means of spread of CSF [Classical Swine Fever Virus, a flavivirus like Zika] within infected areas. The persistence of CSFV within herds for long periods has been observed. Infections of sows during pregnancy with low to moderately virulent strains of CSFV may lead to in utero infections of fetuses. These infections lead to litters born persistently infected with CSFV that are carriers of the virus and source for new infections. Persistently infected carrier pigs usually do not show clinical signs but constantly shed CSFV into the environment. Therefore, it is particularly important to consider CSFV infections while investigating herds presenting with unexplained reproductive failures that include clinical manifestations in piglets such as congenital tremor or congenital abnormalities."

 Are pigs in Recife, Brazil the real source of the Zika-related problem in Brazil?

World Cup Brazil 2014: Part 1 – Sao Paulo-Recife-Natal for USA vs. Ghana and Japan vs. Greece


Luckily I negotiated a price beforehand instead of going by the meter, as there was massive traffic. Recife, Brazil’s 5th largest city, with a population of about 5m in the metro area, has an amazing coast line, but the interior of the city is very poor.
I immediately could see why Brazilians had been protesting the world cup. There’s no highway that goes across the city. The roads are pocked with pot holes that are big enough to eat your car. There’s a decent homeless population living in the streets. And you can tell people are struggling to get by.
Because traffic was so bad, the taxi driver asked me if we could take an alternate route. I agreed and we went through neighborhoods instead of the main road. I saw feral pigs eating trash, kids wearing shorts and nothing else, dilapidated houses and people with just their basic needs being met."

 If the World Health Organization says that the reservoir of Zika Virus is "unknown," shouldn't scientists be checking the pigs in Brazil for antibodies to it?

Zika virus is an emerging mosquito-borne virus that was first identified in Uganda in 1947 in rhesus monkeys through a monitoring network of sylvatic yellow fever. It was subsequently identified in humans in 1952 in Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania. Outbreaks of Zika virus disease have been recorded in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.
  • Genre: Flavivirus
  • Vector: Aedes mosquitoes (which usually bite during the morning and late afternoon/evening hours)
  • Reservoir: Unknown

Prevalence in the cerebrospinal fluid of the following infectious agents in a cohort of 12 CFS subjects: human herpes virus-6 and 8; chlamydia species; mycoplasma species; EBV; CMV; and Coxsackievirus. Levine, S. Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, 2001, 9, 1/2, 41-51. Abstract: Over the last decade a wide variety of infectious agents have been associated with the CFS as potential etiologies for this disorder. Many of these agents are neurotrophic and have been linked previously to other diseases involving the central nervous system (CNS). Human herpes virus-6 (HHV-6), especially the B variant, has been found in autopsy specimens of patients who suffered from MS. Because patients with CFS manifest a wide range of symptoms involving the CNS as shown by abnormalities on brain MRIs, SPECT scans of the brain and results of tilt table testing we sought to determine the prevalence of HHV-6, HHV-8, Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), mycoplasma species, chlamydia species,...

  List 20 questions that would make the HIV establishment (which has demonized critics of the HIV theory) uncomfortable. Here are 20 questions that would likely make the mainstream HIV/AIDS establishment uncomfortable, because they touch on controversies, unanswered issues, or criticisms that have historically been marginalized or dismissed. Questions on the Causation Hypothesis Why has no single purified sample of HIV particles, fulfilling classic virological isolation criteria (Koch’s postulates), been universally accepted as proof of causation? Why does the correlation between HIV infection and AIDS-defining illnesses vary so widely across different populations and risk groups? How do you explain AIDS-defining illnesses in HIV-negative individuals? Why are there known cases of long-term “non-progressors” and “elite controllers” who remain healthy without antiretroviral therapy despite HIV infection?

Perplexity on AIDS paradigm shift in nosology and funding

 How much money does the government spend on AIDS each year versus autism? The U.S. government currently spends over $28 billion per year on HIV/AIDS, but less than $1 billion annually on autism, with autism research specifically receiving around $300–$400 million per year. HIV/AIDS Spending The total U.S. federal government investment in the domestic HIV/AIDS response now exceeds $28 billion annually, covering both mandatory (e.g., Medicaid, Medicare) and discretionary programs (e.g., prevention, research, care). About $7.7 billion of this is discretionary spending for direct programs, services, and research, while the rest is primarily in entitlement (mandatory) health programs. Additional billions go to global HIV/AIDS efforts, such as PEPFAR. Autism Spending Federal support for autism research through the National Institutes of Health was $306 million in 2023, up from $232 million in 2016, with similar levels projected for 2024 and 2025.

Groq on Hannah Arendt and science

  From Groq: Wouldn't Hannah Arendt argue that terms like "scientific consensus" reveal that science is fundamentally a political matter? Hannah Arendt, a philosopher and political theorist, would likely argue that the concept of a "scientific consensus" reveals that science is fundamentally a political matter. In her book "The Human Condition", Arendt argues that science is not a neutral or objective pursuit, but rather a human activity that is shaped by political and social factors. Arendt would argue that the concept of a "scientific consensus" is a product of the modern scientific era, which is characterized by the rise of professionalized science and the increasing importance of scientific expertise in shaping public policy. She would argue that the concept of a "scientific consensus" is a way of legitimizing scientific knowledge and authority, and of creating a sense of shared understanding and agreement among scientists.

A Perplexity conversation about self-deceit, conspiracy, Arendt and AIDS

-
  Discuss the confusion between the appearance of conspiracy and self-deceit, and how self-deceit in government leaders creates the appearance of conspiracy. Self-deceit in government leaders can powerfully create the appearance of conspiracy, even when there is no coordinated secret plot. When leaders convince themselves of the righteousness or effectiveness of their own policies, they may unconsciously deny evidence of harm, ignore ethical contradictions, or adopt comforting narratives rather than confront uncomfortable truths. Other observers, detecting this disconnect between official statements and lived reality, may then perceive hidden motives, deliberate cover-ups, or coordinated deception—classic ingredients of conspiracy suspicions—even if the real dynamic is psychological denial and bureaucratic inertia. ​ This confusion arises because self-deceit can mimic true conspiracy: it generates secrecy, ritualized language, and the concealment of damaging realities, not by inten...

Imagine a rewrite of this cockamamie Chronic Fatigue Syndrome abstract:

Source:  https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/2058738418812342 A compromised paraventricular nucleus within a dysfunctional hypothalamus: A novel neuroinflammatory paradigm for ME/CFS Original Abstract A neuroinflammatory paradigm is presented to help explain the pathophysiology of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is responsible for absorbing and processing multiple, incoming and convergent ‘stress’ signals, and if this cluster of neurons were affected (by neuroinflammation), the ongoing hypersensitivity of ME/CFS patients to a wide range of ‘stressors’ could be explained. Neuroinflammation that was chronic and fluctuating, as ‘inflammatory-marker’ studies support, could reflect a dynamic change in the hypothalamic PVN’s threshold for managing incoming ‘stress’ signals. This may not only be a mechanism underpinning the characteristic feature of ME/CFS, post-exertional malaise, and its associated ...

  Make the case that a major shift in the HIV/AIDS paradigm could be one of the biggest earthquakes to hit science and medicine in history. A major shift in the HIV/AIDS paradigm would constitute one of the most profound intellectual and institutional earthquakes in the history of science and medicine. It would challenge not only the biomedical understanding of a virus and its pathology but also the sociopolitical and economic infrastructure that has grown around HIV research, treatment, and policy for over four decades. Such a transformation would rival the Copernican, Darwinian, or germ theory revolutions in scope and consequence. [1] [2] [3] The Structure of a Paradigm Shift Thomas Kuhn’s classical model of scientific revolutions shows that a paradigm shift fractures scientific consensus when anomalies accumulate that cannot be explained by the reigning theory.

  HHV-6A infection induces expression of HERV-K18-encoded superantigen Albert K. Taia, Janos Lukab, Dharam Ablashi, Brigitte T. Huber published online 08 June 2009. Abstract Background The human endogenous retrovirus K-18 (HERV-K18) encodes a superantigen that causes deregulation of the immune system. This provirus is transcriptionally silent, but can be induced by Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection and IFN-α treatment. Objectives Since the herpesvirus EBV induces HERV-K18 expression in human B cells, it was of interest to determine if other herpesviruses would have similar HERV-K18 transactivation properties. Human herpesvirus (HHV)-6A, a neurotropic virus associated with multiple sclerosis, was a logical candidate for these studies. Study design HSB2 cells (HHV-6-negative control), HSB2-ML cells (containing latent HHV-6A genome) and HSB2/HHV-6A cells (HSB-2 cells productively infected with HHV-6A) were compared for their level of HERV-K18 transcription, using quantitative RT...

Perplexity on the issue of endogenous versus exogenous retroviruses. Is this a key to the HIV mistake?

-
  The distinction between endogenous and exogenous retroviruses is often presented as a clear-cut biological fact, but making this determination is not always straightforward—and some arguments support the view that political, institutional, and even social factors play a significant role in where and how the line is drawn. Reasons why this classification can be political and is not always clear-cut: Definition Complexity: Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are viral sequences embedded in the germline DNA, inherited across generations, and mainly considered “old,” non-infectious remnants. Exogenous retroviruses are “external” viruses that infect individuals horizontally (from person to person or animal to animal). Yet, both are often nearly indistinguishable at the genetic level—sometimes a retrovirus can exist as both, or transition between the two categories over evolutionary time. Intermediate and Ambiguous Cases: Evidence suggests certain viruses classified as endogenous today were...

Perplexity on K.S. and AIDS and inflammation

  Discuss the issue of K.S. happening despite ART use Kaposi sarcoma (KS) can and does occur in people living with HIV, even when they are on effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). While ART has dramatically reduced the incidence and severity of KS, several important points explain why KS still happens despite ART use: Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS): Some individuals develop KS or see it worsen shortly after starting ART, in what is known as KS-IRIS. This is thought to be due to immune system recovery leading to a paradoxical inflammatory response, which can unmask or exacerbate KS—even when HIV viral load drops and CD4 counts begin to rise. Rapidly disseminated or aggressive KS has been reported in these cases, sometimes within months of starting ART. Persistent Risk Despite Good Immune Recovery: Studies have documented cases of KS in patients who maintain undetectable HIV viral loads and normal CD4 counts for years. This includes long-term HIV survivors and o...
