HIV Behaves Like Every Other Virus

Man lived with the HIV virus long before it was discovered and before large numbers of people underwent AIDS tests. The same applies to other types of viruses. For example, the herpes virus is present in two out of three Americans; another two thirds carry the herpes class cytomegalovirus. Four out of five Americans walk around with the Eppstein-Barr virus, which in few of them causes mononucleosis or ‘kissing disease’. Even more people are host to the papilloma virus, which is known to cause warts.

There is hardly anyone living on this planet who does not carry at least a dozen or so viruses in his body, each one related to a specific infectious disease. Yet no scientist in the world would use these facts to announce a mass outbreak of viral epidemics. Every experienced virologist knows that all these viruses are dormant, i.e., they have been neutralized by the immune system. He also knows that this makes the infected people immune against re-infection, unless of course the immune system is damaged or suppressed through other factors.

If HIV, herpes, and all the other types of viruses that are latent in humans and animals living on the planet were capable of killing people, there would hardly be anyone left to treat the billions of sufferers. HIV, being a human retrovirus (produced by the body itself), is totally benign to its host cells and is, therefore, incapable of destroying any cell it has infected. This applies especially to the cells of the immune system, which are equipped with highly sophisticated defense mechanisms. For HIV to have any destructive value, it would literally have to flood the body with active viral particles.

Yet HIV can barely be detected even in late stage AIDS patients, despite using the most sensitive of tests. The traces of HIV virus found in some AIDS patients is inactive, which means, it is harmless, and therefore not responsible for the destruction of the body. If HIV were the cause of AIDS, it would have to do this during the two phases of HIV infection where blood levels of HIV are significant:

1. Soon after infection when the immune system produces antibodies.

2. At the very end stage of AIDS when the levels of all viral activity increase because the immune system has collapsed (due to other reasons than HIV infection).

There is enough scientific data to show that HIV, being and remaining inactive even in AIDS patients, does not kill T-cells and, therefore, cannot cause AIDS!
