Are pigs a source of Zika Virus in Recife, Brazil?

-
 "I just want to understand, how come no one is punished?" said the diminutive, 68-year-old widow, who cares for six grandchildren and three unemployed daughters and collects cans and bottles, along with garbage to feed her pigs in Recife's squalid Coque shantytown.

"Female mosquitoes — which are the only ones that bite, by the way — need to take a blood meal in order to reproduce. They can bite any vertebrate — birds, pigs, even reptiles, and, of course, humans. And since they are so mobile, they easily spread disease from one host to another. They act as syringes for transmitting viruses. What is happening now with the Zika virus, is what is happening among many other arboviruses, like dengue, West Nile and chikungunya: They all seem to be spreading westwards. And we’re undergoing a pandemic."

  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...

We told Perplexity, "Make the case that HHV-8 is the African Swine Fever-like coinfection in AIDS."

-
  From Perplexity A.I. Make the case that HHV-8 is the African Swine Fever-like coinfection in AIDS. Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), also known as Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, is a well-established coinfection in individuals with HIV/AIDS. The comparison to African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) draws on parallels in pathogenesis, immune evasion, and the profound impact of coinfection on disease outcomes. Key Parallels Between HHV-8 and African Swine Fever Virus 1. Pathogenic Synergy with Host Immunodeficiency HHV-8 and AIDS: HHV-8 is a major cause of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and multicentric Castleman disease (MCD), all of which are significantly more aggressive and prevalent in immunocompromised HIV/AIDS patients. ASFV in Swine: ASFV causes severe, often fatal hemorrhagic fever in pigs, especially when host immune defenses are compromised. The virus manipulates host immunity to enhance its replication and spread. 2. Coinfection-Driven Disease...

Perplexity writes a fantasy Joe Rogan interview with Rebecca Culshaw

-
  Fantasy Script: Joe Rogan Interviews Rebecca Culshaw on her AIDS Critique Joe Rogan: Rebecca, welcome to the show. I’ve read some of your Substack, and I have to say—it’s wild. You’re challenging the entire mainstream narrative about AIDS. For the millions listening, can you start by describing what led you to question the standard HIV/AIDS paradigm? Rebecca Culshaw: Thanks, Joe. It really began for me when I was developing mathematical models for HIV in graduate school. The data didn’t match up with the claims—tests for HIV weren’t specific, people diagnosed as HIV+ were healthy for decades, and the supposed virus itself was never isolated in the classical sense. Over time, it became clearer that the story we’ve been told since 1981 has massive cracks. Joe Rogan: So, has anyone really isolated HIV using classic scientific standards? Rebecca Culshaw: No. Despite what the public hears, there's still no universally accepted purified sample of HIV particles fulfilling Koch’s postula...

Another HHV-8- associated condition, the KSHV inflammatory cytokine syndrome (KICS ), has been more recently described. 48-50 Patients with this syndrome display MCD-like inflammatory symptoms, but do not have pathological findings of MCD. Patients with KICS are frequently critically ill and demonstrate marked elevations in IL-6 and IL-10, as well as high plasma HHV-8 viral loads. KICS may contribute to the inflammatory symptoms seen in some patients with severe KS or PEL, and there may be significant clinical overlap between these conditions.  https://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/html/4/adult-and-adolescent-opportunistic-infection/342/hhv-8 Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients may have undiagnosed internal Kaposi's Sarcoma.

Twenty Potential Mistakes Leading to the Misidentification of HIV as the Cause of AIDS

-
From Perplexity A.I.   If HIV turns out to have been mistakenly identified as the cause of AIDS, backpropagate through twenty mistakes that led to it. If HIV were mistakenly identified as the cause of AIDS, a hypothetical backpropagation through twenty key mistakes that could have led to this misidentification might look like the following: Twenty Potential Mistakes Leading to the Misidentification of HIV as the Cause of AIDS 1. Initial Disease Labeling Bias Early designation of the disease as "Gay-Related Immune Deficiency (GRID)" biased research towards focusing on behaviors predominant in one group, potentially overlooking broader causative factors. 2. Rushed Attribution Based on Correlation Correlating HIV presence in AIDS patients was taken as causation without fully ruling out other confounding factors such as drug use, malnutrition, or co-infections widespread in affected populations. 3. Overreliance on Antibody Tests Positive HIV antibody tests were integrated into AI...

If the establishment decides that the nosology of AIDS is wrong and HIV is not the cause of AIDS could that be considered a Black Swan event?

 From Perplexity A.I.  If the establishment decides that the nosology of AIDS is wrong and HIV is not the cause of AIDS could that be considered a Black Swan event? If the scientific establishment were to fundamentally revise the current understanding of AIDS and declare that HIV is not the cause, this would indeed constitute a Black Swan event—an extremely rare, unpredictable, and highly consequential occurrence that dramatically alters conventional wisdom and scientific consensus. A Black Swan event is defined by its rarity, profound impact, and the tendency for people to rationalize it retrospectively as if it could have been expected. The current scientific consensus, established in the late 1980s and reinforced by overwhelming evidence, is that HIV is the causative agent of AIDS. This consensus is based on decades of research, clinical experience, and the effectiveness of HIV-targeting treatments. If the establishment were to reverse this consensus, it would be unpreceden...

Has Maureen Hanson found another opportunistic infection that links Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and AIDS?

  The Enterovirus Theory of Disease Etiology in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: A Critical Review Adam J. O'Neal  and  Maureen R. Hanson * Abstract Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a complex, multi-system disease whose etiological basis has not been established. Enteroviruses (EVs) as a cause of ME/CFS have sometimes been proposed, as they are known agents of acute respiratory and gastrointestinal infections that may persist in secondary infection sites, including the central nervous system, muscle, and heart. To date, the body of research that has investigated enterovirus infections in relation to ME/CFS supports an increased prevalence of chronic or persistent enteroviral infections in ME/CFS patient cohorts than in healthy individuals. Nevertheless, inconsistent results have fueled a decline in related studies over the past two decades. This review covers the aspects of ME/CFS pathophysiology that are consistent with a ...

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

-
Image
"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...

Why HIV should be referred to as "a red herring."

-
 From Perplexity A.I. Make the case that the critics of the HIV theory of AIDS would be more effective at their messaging to politicians and the public by constantly referring to HIV as a red herring. Critics of the HIV theory of AIDS—those who argue that HIV is not the causative agent of AIDS—often struggle to convey their message effectively to politicians and the public because the scientific consensus firmly upholds the link between HIV and AIDS. However, from a communications strategy perspective, such critics might amplify the clarity and urgency of their argument by consistently describing HIV as a "red herring." Here’s why this tactic could make their messaging more effective: 1. Framing the Narrative Labeling HIV as a "red herring" frames the dominant scientific focus on the virus as a distraction from finding the true cause of AIDS (as the critics would argue). This concise phrase presents the debate in terms of misdirection, which is an accessible and com...
