Here's my theory... I believe that maybe the HIV virus has the ability
affect areas of the human brain and that it could modify the host's
behavior so as to increase chances of transmission.

The rabies virus works this way, attacking the part of the brain that
controls aggression and causing the host to bite other animals and
transmit the virus via saliva. Similarly, the HIV virus may be able
to control the part of the brain controlling the sex drive and cause
the host to be promiscuous and transmit the virus via semen.

It's been known for some time that the antiviral drugs do not pass
through the blood/brain barrier, providing refuge for the HIV virus
and time for it to attack whatever brain regions are necessary to
make the host perpetually horny. The increased promiscuity on the
host's part compensates for the (unproven) decreased infectiousness
provided by the antiviral drugs.

The virus exhibits a form of intelligence that results from nearly
infinite genetic recombinations. After quintillions of replications,
random chance dictates that a particular viral offspring has the
right characteristics to affect the specific brain center controlling
the sex drive, and that particular mutation would enjoy a survival
advantage and eventually predominate. Antiviral drugs are not even
necessary, this evolutionary process could easily have occurred in
the SIV ancestor in monkeys that later jumped to humans.

This would explain the gay community if you accept that a form of
viral mindcontrol is what causes them to rut like pigs in mass
orgies behind dumpsters in alleys or in cheap Palm Springs motels.
The bizarre compulsive behavior makes sense if you understand that
they have no more conscious control over it than a rabid dog that
bites you, because their brains are under the control of a virus.

Sorry, not YOUR theory ... this one's been around quite a long
time - the Chinese wrote about heat pathogens that promoted
the precise behaviors that we now know to be essential to the
spread of the pathogen. Smallpox, for example. And then the Black
Plague was helped along by people fucking like crazy even
(or especially) when they knew this was important to the spread
of the pathogen. And once the "AIDS cure" drugs were announced
in the mid-1990's all the gay bars and sex clubs were opened 24/7,
even though there was no cure but there sure were a lot of horny
faggots on methamphetamine and viagra (God bless those thoughtful
doctors who prescribed viagra to HIV+ boys after their patient
caseloads had dwindled to almost nothing...).

In disturbing news for HIV patients, research now provides visual evidence that the AIDS virus
ravages some parts of the brain, even in those who follow powerful drug regimens to remain
healthy.

By using high-tech scanners, researchers from two American universities found that the brains
of HIV patients were 15 percent thinner in areas that control language, planning and movement.
It didn't matter if the patients were on a drug regimen known as HAART, which often allows
infected individuals to keep the virus from destroying the immune system.

"The drugs clearly aren't stopping the destruction of brain tissue," said study co-author Paul
M. Thompson, a neuroscience researcher at the University of California , Los Angeles .

An estimated 40 million people worldwide are infected with the AIDS virus -- about 1 percent of
those aged 15 to 49 -- and many don't have access to the antiviral medicines that have turned
HIV infection into a largely treatable condition for many in the developed world.

A large percentage of HIV patients suffer from neurological problems; one study put the number
at 40 percent.

In the new study, Thompson and his colleagues from UCLA and the University of Pittsburgh used
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to create three-dimensional brain /images of 40 subjects. Of
those, 26 were HIV patients and 14 were healthy "controls."

The thickness of the brain in three areas -- the primary sensor, motor and premotor cortices --
was 15 percent lower in HIV patients. The other three-quarters of the brain were unaffected,
the study found.

"Now you can catch AIDS red-handed," said Thompson, who added that the study, appearing in this
week's online issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , was the first of
its kind. "You can see the damage it inflicts on the brain in great detail."

What does this mean for HIV patients? They're likely to suffer from brain damage, Thompson
said, "although it may not get to the degree where you experience noticeable symptoms."

The next step is to determine how to stop the disease from attacking the brain. But, while the
virus can penetrate the brain, drugs typically can't because of a natural barrier that protects
the organ from foreign materials in the blood.

"The brain becomes a kind of sanctuary where the drugs can't follow," Thompson said.

Dr. Nick Fox, a professor of neurology at University College London, who's familiar with the
findings, said the new research sends an important message to health-care professionals about
the need to remember about HIV's effects on the brain.

It "reminds us of the need to aggressively treat these threats to our limited stock of gray
cells," Fox said.

When one views the demented rants of HIV-neg AIDS Clingons like
George Mary Carter, one must conclude that the AIDS virus also
ravages the brains of the uninfected faggots to the point that they
work themselves into a fuck frenzy - virtually assuring their own
infection (30 to 40 partners isn't unusual for a meth-viagra-fueled
night at the closest sex club)...

Fortunately for Carter, he obviously made the painful transition
from Twinkie Size Queen to Unfuckable Troll long ago...

I remember there being controversy over whether Medicare and even
private insurance should pay for Viagra, and I'm sure there will
soon be a political campaign to prohibit prescribing it to the
sex offenders who have become the new boogeymen in our society,
but I have heard no public outcry over prescribing it to AIDS
patients.

I'll check, but I'm pretty sure that most AIDS patients in the U.S.
are covered under Ryan White and various other public medical
programs, and that even routine non-AIDS treatment is also covered
because in a sense HIV affects all aspects of the body (e.g. my
HIV+ fucktard of a brother gets free dental treatment while I had
to pay $1800 for my recent root canal). Assuming the theory that
HIV increases sexual drive remains unproven, it could be proven
that one or more drugs that are a part the standard cocktail
therapy cause impotence and that Viagra and the other hard-on
pills should be provided as part of the standard AIDS treatment.

Then consider than that pharmaceutical companies would have no
financial interest in learning whether HIV affects sexual behavior,
and have lots of financial interest in expanding the number of
prescriptions for Viagra and Levitra (and then the future
prescriptions for the antiviral drugs). With this in mind, do you
think Congress would ever restrict the practice of prescribing
these drugs to STD patients?

And a personal anecdote about my insane, meth-using, HIV+ fucktard
of a brother who came to visit me as I lived on the Mexican border
a couple of years ago: He was totally psychotic and ranted on and
on 24/7, and half the time he was babbling on about how we needed
to cross the border so he could by Viagra and Levitra. I'm serious,
even though he did not have a penny to his name, he actually
believed I was going to purchase several hundred dollars of these
pills for him to take back to Vegas to party with. Needless to say
I didn't take him across, though in retrospect I wish I had then
informed Mexican authorities (who deport sick Americans immediately)
right after informing U.S. authorities (who bar entry to those with
HIV, even if they're American, I think).

If you, not you personally, wanted to cure aids, you just named the cure.
Dry up all the money programs and aids would be gone within a month.

I'm sure there is a disease with a test standing by -but has no cure-
to take its place should that happen.

Excuses would sound something like:

oh, gee, what dopes we were, we didn't isolate hiv,
that was Lai/IIIb, but they are so similar it was a natural mistake.

We need to re-search this more and we need money, plenty of money.

Heck it is also used in plant-life. I guess to check the pussy-willow

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a
cause of major economic loss to the global pig industry. The
syndrome was first recorded in North America in 1987 and since
then it has become endemic throughout large areas of the
world. The causative agent, PRRS virus, was first isolated in the
Netherlands in 1991

According to the CIA factbook, in 2003 there were 3,300 (estimate) people
living with HIV/AIDS in Cuba, and less than 200 (estimate) had died.


According to this report, the quarantine is not locking people up and
throwing away the key.

According to WHO, in 1993 only 40% of the people living with HIV were is
sanatoriums in Cuba, as it was voluntary if you wanted to live there or not.

----------------------------



It is interesting to see that they say these sanatoriums are like suburban
communities with one and two bedroom apartments with a small garden,
surrounded by lush bushland, one would have to only guess at the unholy
screams from the Religious Reich of America, if it was suggested to spend
money on such places in the USA.

It was an error in writing on my behalf, as they changed the law in 1993,
and it was voluntary from that time onward if you stayed or left the
sanatoriums. So the 1993 date was important from a point of view of that is
when they changed their laws. Obviously they did not think that locking
people up so to speak was the answer.
