Doctors from NYU Langone Medical Center: Langone This study provides the first in vivo evidence that zinc sulfate in combination with hydroxychloroquine may play a role in therapeutic management for COVID-19.

-

Abstract:
Background: COVID-19 has rapidly emerged as a pandemic infection that has caused significant mortality and economic losses. Potential therapies and means of prophylaxis against COVID-19 are urgently needed to combat this novel infection. As a result of in vitro evidence suggesting zinc sulfate may be efficacious against COVID-19, our hospitals began using zinc sulfate as add-on therapy to hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin. We performed a retrospective observational study to compare hospital outcomes among patients who received hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin plus zinc versus hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin alone. Methods: Data was collected from electronic medical records for all patients being treated with admission dates ranging from March 2, 2020 through April 5, 2020. Initial clinical characteristics on presentation, medications given during the hospitalization, and hospital outcomes were recorded. Patients in the study were excluded if they were treated with other investigational medications. Results: The addition of zinc sulfate did not impact the length of hospitalization, duration of ventilation, or ICU duration. In univariate analyses, zinc sulfate increased the frequency of patients being discharged home, and decreased the need for ventilation, admission to the ICU, and mortality or transfer to hospice for patients who were never admitted to the ICU. After adjusting for the time at which zinc sulfate was added to our protocol, an increased frequency of being discharged home (OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.12-2.09) reduction in mortality or transfer to hospice remained significant (OR 0.449, 95% CI 0.271-0.744). Conclusion: This study provides the first in vivo evidence that zinc sulfate in combination with hydroxychloroquine may play a role in therapeutic management for COVID-19.

From Perplexity, " Explain why Rebecca Culshaw's Substack could one day make her the Peter Buxtun of AIDS."

-
  Explain why Rebecca Culshaw's Substack could one day make her the Peter Buxtun of AIDS. Why Rebecca Culshaw’s Substack Could Make Her the “Peter Buxtun of AIDS” Who Is Peter Buxtun? Peter Buxtun was the whistleblower who exposed the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, a notorious medical ethics scandal in which Black men with syphilis were left untreated without their informed consent. Buxtun’s actions led to public outrage and major reforms in medical ethics and research oversight. Rebecca Culshaw’s Role in AIDS Discourse Rebecca Culshaw is a mathematician and former HIV/AIDS researcher who has become a vocal critic of the mainstream scientific consensus on HIV and AIDS. Through her Substack and books such as The Real AIDS Epidemic, Culshaw argues that the prevailing HIV/AIDS model is scientifically flawed and that the medical establishment has perpetuated harmful policies and treatments based on this model. Parallels Between Culshaw and Buxtun Whistleblower Status: Like Buxtun, Culshaw po...

HHV-6 in K.S. and AIDS

-
  From Perplexity Make the case that HHV-6 plays an underestimated role in Kaposi's Sarcoma and should be taken more seriously in AIDS. The Underestimated Role of HHV-6 in Kaposi's Sarcoma: A Compelling Case for Recognition in AIDS Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) represents one of the most underappreciated cofactors in AIDS pathogenesis, particularly in its relationship to Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Despite mounting evidence demonstrating its significant impact on HIV disease progression and cancer development, HHV-6 remains relegated to secondary consideration compared to other opportunistic pathogens. This neglect represents a critical gap in our understanding and management of AIDS-related malignancies. Direct Evidence of HHV-6's Role in Kaposi's Sarcoma Pathogenesis The most compelling evidence for HHV-6's underestimated role comes from experimental studies demonstrating its direct interaction with Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV/HHV-8), the establ...

 From Perplexity A.I. Now connect this HHV-6 issue to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and autism. The Underestimated Connection: HHV-6's Critical Role Linking Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Autism Through Neuroinflammatory Pathways The relationship between Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), and autism spectrum disorders (ASD) represents one of the most compelling yet underappreciated connections in modern neurology and immunology. Building upon the established evidence for HHV-6's role in AIDS and Kaposi's sarcoma, emerging research reveals that this virus serves as a crucial link between CFS and autism through shared mechanisms of neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and immune dysregulation. HHV-6 as a Confirmed Trigger in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome The evidence for HHV-6's causative role in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome has reached compelling levels through multiple independent research streams.

Fun from Perplexity Write a satirical story about in which AIDS activists get involved in promoting and defending science that turns out to be totally wrong and backfires on them Based on the research I've conducted, I now have enough information to write a satirical story about AIDS activists getting involved in promoting and defending flawed science. I'll create a fictional story that draws inspiration from the real history of AIDS activism, medical reversals, and scientific controversies to craft a satirical narrative that explores the themes requested. The Experts Dr. Marcus Sterling adjusted his wire-rimmed glasses and surveyed the packed auditorium with satisfaction. The banner hanging behind him read "Coalition for Revolutionary AIDS Research" in bold, rainbow letters.

Consciousness of Guilt in Science and Medicine (From Perplexity A.I.)

-
  Develop the idea that there is something in science and medicine called "consciousness of fraud" (like consciousness of guilt) and list the telltale signs that a scientist is inadvertently showing it. The concept of "consciousness of fraud" in science and medicine parallels legal "consciousness of guilt," reflecting subtle behavioral and linguistic cues that betray a researcher's awareness of misconduct. These involuntary signs manifest through writing patterns, methodological choices, and professional behavior, often revealing attempts to conceal fabricated or manipulated data. Below are key telltale signs, synthesized from empirical studies and expert analyses of scientific fraud: 🔍 Linguistic and Writing Patterns Obfuscation in Language: Fraudulent papers use significantly more jargon, abstract terms, and complex phrasing to obscure methods or results. This "linguistic masking" aims to deter scrutiny, with fraudulent texts containing ~1...

 From Perplexity A.I. Make the argument that Castleman's Disease undermines the nosology, epidemiology, and virology of AIDS. Castleman disease, particularly its HIV-associated multicentric form (HIV-MCD), challenges core paradigms in AIDS medicine across nosology, epidemiology, and virology. Below is a detailed analysis of how this rare lymphoproliferative disorder complicates established frameworks. 🧬 Nosological Challenges HIV-MCD disrupts traditional AIDS classification by: Blurring diagnostic boundaries: It exhibits inflammatory symptoms (e.g., fever, cytopenia) and histopathology (plasmablastic proliferation) that overlap with—but are distinct from—classic AIDS-defining conditions like lymphoma or opportunistic infections. Dual-pathogen dynamics: Diagnosis requires confirming HHV-8 co-infection, positioning it as a viral co-pathogenesis rather than a direct HIV complication. This contrasts with AIDS nosology, which typically centers on HIV as the primary etiological agent. U...

 From Perplexity A.I. If one studies all the medical literature on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and AIDS, what viruses, infections, and pathological findings do they have in common? If one studies all the medical literature on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and AIDS, what viruses, infections, and pathological findings do they have in common? When reviewing the medical literature on  Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS, also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ME)  and  AIDS  (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome), several  viruses, infections, and pathological findings  are noted to overlap, though the diseases have distinct etiologies and clinical courses. Viruses and Infections in Common Herpesviruses:  Both conditions are associated with increased prevalence or reactivation of herpesviruses, notably  Cytomegalovirus (CMV)  and  Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) . In AIDS, CMV is a common opportunistic infection, while in CFS, studies have found higher odd...

If the nosological definition of AIDS is reset to include all illnesses with serious inflammation regardless of HIV positivity or status, what illnesses could be included in the nosology of AIDS?

-
From Perplexity A.I. If the nosological definition of AIDS is reset to include all illnesses with serious inflammation regardless of HIV positivity or status, what illnesses could be included in the nosology of AIDS? If the nosological definition of AIDS were changed to include all illnesses with serious inflammation regardless of HIV positivity or status, the category would expand dramatically beyond its current, precise meaning. AIDS is currently defined by the presence of HIV infection leading to profound immunodeficiency and a specific set of opportunistic infections and cancers. Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of untreated HIV/AIDS, but it is not unique to it. If “AIDS” were redefined as any illness with serious inflammation, the following types of illnesses could be included: Autoimmune diseases: These are characterized by chronic, often severe inflammation due to the body’s immune system attacking its own tissues. Examples include: Rheumatoid arthritis Systemic lupus erythema...

Ablashi discusses HHV-6, AIDS, Alzheimer's, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

"HHV-6 is actually likely to reduce HIV patient survival by accelerating the depletion of CD4 and CD8 T cells. HHV-6A was shown to accelerate AIDS progression in macaques.  Macaques co-infected with simian HIV and HHV-6A died quickly and showed a dramatic depletion in both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, whereas those infected with only simian HIV never progressed to full blown AIDS."  "We believe that infections are the most logical explanation for the inflammation neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer’s , but don’t believe that there is a single pathogen responsible. HHV-6A and HHV-7 were identified as likely culprits in 2018 paper , using RNAseq analysis by Readhead and team. Two subsequent studies did not find an increase in HHV-6/7 using the same data, but at the same time did not find a significant presence of ANY herpesviruses in the brain, which we know is not the case. Dozens of careful studies have identified a high prevalence of low-level HHV-6 and HSV1 DN...
