New In Vitro Model Supports Further Testing of CFS/AIDS drug Ampligen as an Intranasal Prophylactic to Prevent COVID-19

-


OCALA, FL / ACCESSWIRE / August 27, 2020 / AIM ImmunoTech Inc. (NYSE American:AIM) is pleased to announce that it has identified an effective in vitro model at The Institute for Antiviral Research at Utah State University for testing Ampligen, a dsRNA TLR3 agonist, and the results show that Ampligen was able to decrease SARS-CoV-2 infectious viral yields by 90% at clinically achievable intranasal Ampligen dosage levels. This result supports AIM's goal of developing an intranasal prophylactic approach using Ampligen to prevent COVID-19.

"We are pleased with these results, as they establish Ampligen's bio-activity against SARS-CoV-2 as well as support our decision to test Ampligen in humans as an intranasal prophylaxis and early-onset therapy against COVID-19," said AIM CEO Thomas K. Equels.

The 3D-mucociliary tissue culture of normal, human-derived tracheal/bronchial epithelial cells sufficiently models some of the key innate immune responses needed to demonstrate Ampligen's prophylactic effect on SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The 90% effective concentration (EC90) of Ampligen observed in this tissue culture model is clinically achievable in human subjects to presumptively decrease SARS-CoV-2. Currently, there is a lack of an adequate animal model and therefore the company utilized the USA-WA1/2020 strain of SARS-CoV-2 in a 3-D, in vitro model of normal, human-derived tracheal/bronchial epithelial cells. The results show that Ampligen was able to decrease SARS-CoV-2 infectious viral yields by 90% at clinically achievable intranasal Ampligen dosage levels. This result supports AIM's goal of developing an intranasal prophylactic approach using Ampligen to prevent COVID-19.

Ampligen is believed to be a powerful positive modulator of human innate immunity and therefore the best measure of efficacy will be obtained in animal and human experimentation utilizing a living, in vivo, innate immune system.

The case that HHV-6 maybe the biggest unrecognized public health threat in the world.

-
From Perplexity A.I . Make the case that HHV-6 maybe the biggest unrecognized public health threat in the world. Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) represents a potentially massive but under-recognized public health threat for several key reasons: 1. Extremely High Prevalence and Ubiquity HHV-6 infects nearly everyone worldwide: More than 95% of children contract the virus by age 2, and infection rates as high as 64–83% have been found among infants in the U.S., U.K., Japan, and Taiwan. Seroprevalence studies across diverse adult populations also report rates between 39–80%. After initial infection, the virus remains latent in the body for life, periodically reactivating. HHV-6 DNA is detectable in 20–25% of healthy adults at any given time, demonstrating just how common reactivation is. 2. Broad Spectrum of Diseases—Often Unrecognized HHV-6 causes roseola infantum (exanthema subitum), which accounts for a significant number of emergency visits and hospitalizations in young children.

  Perplexity Make the case that if Robert Gallo had discovered HHV-6 before he discovered HIV, it would have been reasonable for him to suggest it was the cause of AIDS. To make the case that if Robert Gallo had discovered HHV-6 before discovering HIV, it would have been reasonable for him to suggest HHV-6 was the cause of AIDS, we must examine several key points based on historical context and scientific knowledge. Timeline and Context HIV Discovery: Gallo and his team published the discovery identifying HIV (then HTLV-III) as the cause of AIDS in May 1984. HHV-6 Discovery: HHV-6 was discovered in 1986 by Gallo and colleagues, initially isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes of individuals with lymphoproliferative disorders, including AIDS patients. Scientific Reasoning 1. Early AIDS Theories Focused on Viruses When AIDS emerged, scientists, including Gallo, believed it was likely caused by a virus, given its infectious nature and immune system effects. The identification of n...

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...

These points are drawn from various scientific critiques, denialist perspectives, and calls for broader inquiry; however, note that the overwhelming scientific consensus confirms HIV as the cause of AIDS, and many of these points have been addressed by research: Non-correlation between HIV presence and AIDS in some populations, e.g., variable AIDS risk despite HIV infection based on gender or geography.

Pigs with ASFV also develop hypovolemia?

-
  Do pigs with African Swine Fever develop hypovolemia? Do pigs with African Swine Fever develop hypovolemia? Pigs infected with  African Swine Fever (ASF)  commonly develop clinical signs and pathological changes highly suggestive of  hypovolemia , particularly due to the disease’s severe hemorrhagic and vascular effects. ASF causes widespread hemorrhages and vascular damage . Typical findings include petechial (pinpoint) hemorrhages in the kidneys, severe hemorrhagic lymphadenitis, pulmonary and gall bladder edema, and effusions (straw-colored or blood-stained fluid) in the pleural, pericardial, and peritoneal cavities . These extensive hemorrhages and vascular leakages can lead to a  significant loss of blood volume , resulting in classic features of hypovolemic shock—such as weakness, recumbency, prostration, incoordination, pale mucous membranes, and death from shock . The underlying mechanism is  severe disruption of blood vessels  and disseminat...

If HIV is definitively proven not to be the cause of AIDS, what class action lawsuits could be launched involving, diagnosis, treatment, and stigmatization?

From Perplexity A.I.   If HIV is definitively proven not to be the cause of AIDS, what class action lawsuits could be launched involving, diagnosis, treatment, and stigmatization? If HIV were definitively proven not to be the cause of AIDS, potential class action lawsuits could arise around the themes of misdiagnosis, mistreatment, and stigmatization related to HIV/AIDS. Specifically, lawsuits might target: Misdiagnosis and Treatment Harm: Patients treated for HIV/AIDS with antiretroviral drugs that later prove ineffective or harmful could sue pharmaceutical companies for negligence or product liability. For example, past lawsuits have claimed that some HIV drugs were toxic to kidneys and bones and that companies withheld safer alternatives to maximize profits. If HIV is disproven as the cause of AIDS, the entire basis for these treatments could be challenged, possibly leading to large-scale damages claims.

"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...
