Why people live longer now
To address the claim "that the new meds extends (sic) many of the lives
who are hiv+ or have aids", one need look no further than that bastion of
orthodox "AIDS" think, The Journal of the Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndromes and Human Retrovirology. Publishing their data in 1997, orthodox
"AIDS" researchers claimed that "combination antiretroviral therapy with
protease inhibitors clearly improves survival", yet they also state that
their own analysis showed "that San Francisco would have experienced a
significant decline in AIDS cases, due to the
decrease in HIV seroconversions, even if combination antiretroviral
therapy had not been developed." (J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr Hum
Retrovirol 1997, 16(3):182-189.)
The changed definition of AIDS is also a major factor. For further
verification the 1993 revision of the definition of "AIDS" skewing
survival data, please click on http://healtoronto.com/rrsurvival.html
In short, when the changing definition of "AIDS" (see the CDC's MMWR 1992;
41:1-19) was compared to the old pre-1993 version of the definition in
which people were diagnosed SOLELY upon clinical considerations (i.e.
ACTUAL sicknesses), researchers found, lo and behold, an increase in
survival of almost 2.5 times just by controlling for the revised
definition! They published their findings in the VERY mainstream Journal
of the
American Medical Association in 1994 (Vella S, et al. JAMA 1994;
271:1197-9).
So much for making "AIDS" a "managed disease" through "better"
medications!
