Thank you for the link. He certainly has a different perspective than I've seen elsewhere.

I hadn't really looked into the statistics before now, but an inquiry into a search engine using "AIDS statistics" brought back over a million hits. The following links are from the Library of Congress and seem to offer a somewhat different set of numbers than shown on the Duesberg link:

lcweb2.loc.gov
lcweb2.loc.gov
lcweb2.loc.gov
lcweb2.loc.gov

I don't have any idea who has the most accurate take on the actual numbers.

I'm not a medical doctor nor am I familiar with AIDS research, so I can't say whether Dr. Duesberg is onto to something or not.

I think that Duesberg is totally wrong. I have read some of his works, and he seems to forget that HIV does not cause disease, but damages the immune system.

If you look at it in that light he does not make sense.

Plus, he really does not address the near universal HIV positivity in the AIDS community...
