John Beldekas and HHV-6

-
In August, 1986, John Beldekas was invited to go to the NCI and present his findings on the link between ASFV [African Swine Fever virus] and AIDS, which he did. Beldekas gave samples of all his lab work to Gallo. Later, the government asked Beldekas to turn over all his reagents and lab work to the government, which he did. Beldekas had found ASFV presence in nine of 21 AIDS patients using two standard procedures. At the meeting, Gallo was reported saying: “we know it is not ASFV.” How could Gallo know this as he hadn’t done any of his own tests to look for ASFV? Two months later, Gallo published an article in Science (Oct 31, 1986) that he discovered a new possible co-factor in AIDS, a virus he called Human B Cell Lymphotropic Virus which he named HBLV. Like ASFV, HBLV infected B cells and also lived in macrophages. Did Gallo steal Beldekas’s ASF virus he found in AIDS patients and rename it HBLV? Later on, when Gallo found that HBLV could also infect other immune cel...

HHV-8 and KS in CFIDS

-
A number of years ago, Neenyah Ostrom reported in the New York Native on the lesions in CFS patients which seem to resemble Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS). The current thinking is that a virus called HHV-8 is the cause of KS. (Although HHV-6 has recently also been implicated once again.) If KS is a problem in CFS (and we suspect it is) then one should be able to find HHV-8 and HHV-6 in CFS patients. Apparently, in this small study, one can. Below is a rather explosive abstract: 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.

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...

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.

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.

Perplexity on the AIDS paradigm

  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. HIV/AIDS research has long been dominated by the biomedical paradigm , which locates the cause of immune coll...

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...

Perplexity on Rebecca Culshaw Smith, and PrEP as Genocide

-
  Rebecca Culshaw’s Substack articles establish a foundation for arguing that the mass promotion and use of PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) in HIV prevention could be considered a form of “genocide,” rooted in several lines of critique that challenge both the scientific and ethical underpinnings of the intervention. ​ Critique of Efficacy Claims Culshaw repeatedly questions the reliability of the efficacy data cited for PrEP, especially the widely publicized claim of “99% effectiveness.” She critiques the primary studies behind this figure, particularly the UK “Impact Trial,” highlighting that its actual observed efficacy was only 86%, and that even this figure is derived from retrospective, less scientifically rigorous analysis. She emphasizes that PrEP, to justify the aggressive and potentially coercive marketing campaigns behind it, should meet a much higher bar of evidence given its target population often consists of healthy individuals.

  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...

  A major nosological mistake in AIDS—meaning a fundamental error in how the disease is defined, classified, or diagnosed—could be the most consequential nosological error in history because of several deeply impactful social, scientific, and ethical consequences. Scale and Impact of AIDS The way AIDS was defined and classified determined how millions of people were diagnosed, treated, and socially perceived. Nosological mistakes have led to unnecessary suffering, stigmatization, discrimination, and sometimes fatal outcomes for entire populations. During the early epidemic, AIDS definitions dictated global policies, resource allocation, and public health strategies, impacting the lives of marginalized groups and shaping health systems globally. Misdirected Interventions and Suffering If the nosology—such as equating all immune compromise with AIDS or failing to recognize other causes—was incorrect, countless lives may have been lost or damaged due to misdiagnosis, inappropriate tre...

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...

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.

This includes long-term HIV survivors and o...

Nadler did that at the urging of Charles Ortleb, the publisher and the New York Native and his reporter Neenyah Ostrom. Ortleb and Ostrom had made the case to Nadler that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the virus it had been linked to, HHV-6, were serious public health issues.                                                 In an interview in New York Native with Neenyah Ostrom,Congressman Nadler said, "Congress can mandate research into CFS as a viral disease.
