Rethinking AIDS Convention 2011: Will the rooms be padded?

AIDS denialists will hold their 2011 convention in Washington, DC on December 1, World AIDS Day. The conference will focus on uncovering the US government's and pharmaceutical industry's global conspiracy to sell HIV tests and medications. The conference organizers say "The myth that blames a single retrovirus for a complex multi-factorial syndrome has left in its wake millions of people terrified of an 'HIV test', a pharmacopeia of toxic drugs prescribed without informed consent and an effort by the myth-makers to shut down intelligent public discussion. Thousands of scientists, epidemiologists, academics, physicians, journalists, and activists who oppose the use of toxic medications and inaccurate tests have been called 'denialists', an attempt to equate dissent with those who deny the Nazi Holocaust."


Why Washington DC? Rethinking AIDS says "It was the Washington National Capital area at Robert Gallo's infamous press conference in April 1984 that the infectious theory of AIDS took hold, just before patents were filed and a month before any science had been published. The National Capital area is also home to the National Institutes of Health (Bethesda, MD) that provides the bulk of AIDS research funding in the USA and globally. Washington, DC also has a very large black population and sizable gay community, both of which are targets for AIDS medications. Washington is also the seat of the American government that is a leading promoter of the fear of HIV and AIDS around the world and the consumption of toxic antiretroviral drugs as the dominant means of addressing both treatment and prevention."

The conference is organized by Canadian freelance conspiracy theorist David Crowe, "a science critic and writer based in Calgary, Canada. He has a [Bachelors] degree in biology and [another Bachelors'] mathematics and has written extensively on HIV/AIDS, failures of modern medicine and telecommunications. He was one of the founders of the Green Party of Alberta, and is president of Rethinking AIDS and the Alberta Reappraising AIDS Society." David Crowe has also written extensively as a contributor to cancer screening and treatment denial as well as climate change denial.

Who will you see present at this conference?

Peter Duesberg will address major contradictions between HIV/AIDS statistics as measured in Africa and the classical bell-shape epidemic of an infectious disease.

Charles Geshekter will demonstrate how endemic poverty in Africa explains the fabricated AIDS epidemic, and how simple methods to improve health, rather than condoms and toxic pharmaceuticals, can address the real causes of immune deficiency and disease on the continent.
David Rasnick will explain how the book Disciplined Minds revealed to him the nature of his experiences with colleagues, who exhibited shock, anger and departure when exposed to discussions of flaws in the HIV/AIDS dogma.

Henry Bauer will talk about how HIV/AIDS is not Unique: It Exemplifies the State of Contemporary Medicine

Roberto Giraldo will explain how oxidative stress is a major factor in explaining both positive HIV tests and the various syndromes called "AIDS".

  1. You are starting to rant. Perhaps a little mental health check up might do you some good Seth, maybe a vacation from all this, I mean it's certainly not a sign of weakness that you'd want to get away from it all for a while and really who could blame you for acting a little weird dealing with this controversy day in and day out. Not to mention the internal conflict of defending a position you know to be wrong but needing peer group approval and not to mention the stress of continual funding applications. I Know those NIH bean counters are ruthless in their demands for grant expenditure oversight regulations it goes on an on.

  2. Henry Bauer is very excited: "The first Rethinking AIDS Conference in Oakland in 2009 exemplified those delights. Over the years (more than 50!!) I’ve attended innumerable conferences of various sorts: academic, professional, or scholarly conferences in electrochemistry and in science & technology studies (STS); tournaments of bridge and chess; meetings of the National Association of Scholars, and of the Society for Scientific Exploration; International Science Conferences sponsored by the Unification Church; get-togethers of very specialized fan clubs interested in Loch Ness monsters or UFOs...."

    Pardon?

    "...Conferences sponsored by the Unification Church..."

    WTF?!!??

    Did you say the Unification Church? The loony mega-cult from South Korea better known as the Moonies?

    Loch Ness Monster and UFO conventions I can understand - after all everyone goes to those - if only for the wonderful costumes.

    But the Moonies? The personality cult of Sun Myung Moon?

    Is there no wingnuttery in the world too crazy for poor old Henry?

  7. Clarkie Baker now issued his own "press release."
    http://www.omsj.org/issues/omsj-fights-the-good-fight

    He says that OMSJ is "a highly recognized and successful non-profit investigation agency".

    Random self-promoting like this reeks of desperation.

  8. Is someone going to alert the IRS that Rasnick will be in DC? He is suspected of evading US taxes for years....living in Africa and the Bahamas, yet doing business out of Florida. Might be nice if he paid his dues...
    Probably true for a bunch of these Right Wing Denialists.

  9. Looks like all is not well in the seriously dysfunctional family of HIV/AIDS denialism. According to the conference program on RA's webpage,

    "Terry Michael, Washington journalist, educator and former Democratic National Committee spokesman, will lead an "introduction to rethinking AIDS" in a free public session before the paid part of the conference."

    Not any more. It seems he's had a spat with David Crowe and Siggy Duesberg.

    RA stalwart Terry Michael dissociates from RA and its Washington conference.

  10. Man, they are an acrimonious bunch. As a chemist, I had to stifle a laugh at this link. Talk about the blind ranting at the blind.

  11. Dude... the orthodox view hasn't come up with a cure in over 30 years. I don't know why you guys feel so threatened by alternate or complimentary theories.

    If someone can't admit that progression to AIDS is 'multi-factorial', then that person is short-minded, plain and simple. Maybe HIV is part of the problem, but to imply that nutrition, clean drinking water, stress, etc, have no place is the discussion, is something even a 2nd grader can see through.

    1. AIDS WAS CREATED IN THE UNITED STATE AND THE SPREAD TO THE REST OF THE WORLD. IT STARTED AT THE SAME TIME THE COCAINE CARTEL FLOODED THE UNITED STATE WITH CHEAP COCAINE. COCAINE IS PROCESSED WITH SOLVENTS THAT ARE NOT MEANT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. MANY LOOK AT COCAINE AS A SECONDARY FACTOR. COCAINE SHOULD BE LOOK AT AS THE PRIMARY FACTOR, BECAUSE IT IS PRESENT IN JUST ABOUT EVERY CASE OF HIV AIDS.

  12. Threatened by the alternate theories? You're a lark. I'm not threatened by people calling the sky orange.
