VIRUSMYTH HOMEPAGE


SCIENTIFIC TRUTH

By David Tyson

26 Dec. 1998


The Tysons are currently under court order to administer the useless and highly toxic drug AZT (a cytostatica) to their son Felix (who is HIV negative) for 6 weeks to prevent him from developing antibodies to HIV. This article was released on the internet by the father, David Tyson.

When my wife, Kathleen, tested positive for HIV in October, 1998, the sixth month of her pregnancy, we were both stunned. Even more confusing was the HIV negative status of my blood test. We have been married for over ten years, monogamous, and never received blood transfusions.Our calculations indicate that we have had 300% more sessions of unprotected sex than the literature suggests is required for transmission. Kathleen is and always has been a robust specimen. It was clear that what we had heard about HIV and what we were observing in our own bodies raised a number of profound questions.

On our doctor's advice Kathleen started a regimen of a protease inhibitor and AZT, Lamivudine and Zidovudine (a cancer chemotherapy which had been abandoned as useless but then resurrected as a powerful antiretroviral agent).

I hit the books, maximally motivated to get a grasp on the science of our situation and, as it turns out, the politics of the plague warriors. After several weeks intensively reviewing the "literature" disseminated by the NIH (National Institute of Health) and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) I was angry and frustrated.Nowhere, apparently, was there any scientific elucidation on a causative link between HIV and AIDS. There were assumptions and opinions aplenty, often conflicting and contradictory, some suspiciously obscure and obtuse lab reports, but nothing resembling the precise and thoughtful elucidation which I associate with scientific thinking.

I was not, I discovered, alone in my frustration.

Dr. Kary Mullis, recipient of the 1993 Nobel prize for chemistry for his invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), someone eminently more qualified than myself to discover such a document, was unable to do so as well. Dr. Mullis reports:

did computer searches. Neither Montagnier, Gallo, nor anyone else had published papers describing experiments which led to the conclusion that H.I.V. probably caused AIDS. I read the papers in Science for which they had become well known as AIDS doctors, but all they had said there was that they had found evidence of a past infection by something which was probably H.I.V. in some AIDS patients. They found antibodies. Antibodies to viruses had always been considered evidence of past disease, not present disease. Antibodies signaled that the virus had been defeated. The patient had saved himself. There was no indication in these papers that this virus caused a disease. They didn't show that everybody with the antibodies had the disease. In fact they found some healthy people with antibodies.("The Medical Establishment vs. the Truth," Penthouse, Sept. 1998)

Kary Mullis goes on to note that to obtain scientific satisfaction in matters pertaining to HIV and AIDS one can do no better than review the literature developed by Peter Duesberg, Ph.D., professor of microbiology at the University of California, Berkeley. Duesberg has studied retroviruses for 25 years and is considered by some to have the most brilliant mind in the field today.

Duesberg, it turns out, has argued all along that HIV cannot possibly cause AIDS. His arguments take on the cadence and power of mathematical certainty. Perhaps the most compelling strategy he utilizes to arrive at his conclusion is the well known scientific principle which states that a theory, in order to be useful, must accurately predict observed phenomena. It can be demonstrated that the infectious HIV/AIDS theory predicts none of the observed phenomena. (My own highly personal observation corroborates this!)

I should mention that there came a point in my research where I started getting a creepy feeling about our medical establishment. Science, it seems, and conventional wisdom appear to take divergent paths. If Duesberg is correct (as appears more and more likely as evidence accumulates) the American medical establishment and particularly the CDC should start to notice a substance significantly more repugnant than egg on its collective face. We have an epidemic on our hands all right, an epidemic of bad science, promulgated by the NIH and the CDC, co-conspirited by legions of duped and unquestioning doctors of medicine. This affair seen in all its stark and ghastly ramifications is nothing short of murderous fraud on a vast, multibillion dollar, global scale.

But I should perhaps return to my own story.

My failure to find any elucidation of the mechanism of pathogenicity for the HIV/AIDS hypothesis, and my success in discovering conclusive evidence ofthe powerful toxicity and damage to the immune system associated with antiretroviral drugs, convinced my wife and I to abandon her therapy. Compelling scientific arguments put forth by John Yiamouyiannis, Ph.D, Dr. Eleni Papadopulos, a biophysicist, Dr. Roberto Giraldo, an infectious disease specialist, (none of whom, incidentally, are funded through the NIH or CDC) which indicate that HIV is, at worst, a harmless endogenous retrovirus diminished our health concerns considerably. Instead of a C-section we planned to have a vaginal birth, refuse any AZT for our newborn and breastfeed him. If the doctors didn't like it, well, they could always find some other poor sucker to whom to sell their bill of goods. So it was that our baby, Felix Hugh, was born at 9:55 p.m. on the 7th of December, 1998. He weighed 7 lbs., 7 oz. and was as perfect and healthy a little boy as anyone could possibly hope.

We were still basking in the glow of the miracle of birth on the 8th when a stranger entered our hospital room. This person identified herself as an infectious disease pediatrician. She had been referred to us by our regular pediatrician. I must confess that I was not then, nor have I become since, particularly impressed by doctors of medicine. They are, as a group, with spectacular exceptions, prone to follow blindly whatever authority provides them with credentials to charge a great deal of money for dispensing, at best, common sense and, at worst, deadly experimental drugs. (Some of us may recall the thalidomide experiment performed by esteemed doctors of medicine.)

It developed that this particular doctor of medicine had become concerned because Kathleen had eschewed her antiretroviral drugs, refused AZT for Felix and was (horror upon horrors) breastfeeding the little tike!

She became quite emotional on the subject, evoking the terrible trauma of treating infants with AIDS, the painful decisions regarding ever more powerful combinations of drugs as the virus mutated and the child deteriorated. (HIV has been shown to be incapable of mutating and remaining viable. It barely has 9000 nucleotides, hardly the crafty foe myth has made it out to be.) It was simply terrifying, she remarked, how the infernal HIV eluded the earnest efforts of plague warriors like herself to expunge it from its lair in the lymph nodes and bone marrow of its victims. We didn't begin to realize, the doc pleaded, the awful risk to which we were exposing Felix.

As I have indicated we were far from ignorant on these issues.Yet she was absolutely intolerant of our views. (How dare we question the wise counsel she offered!) She snorted with indignation at the mention of Peter Duesberg. "What an egomaniac," she muttered. And she then and to this day reminded me of no one so much as the evil fairy in Sleeping Beauty who, enraged at not being invited to the birthday celebration, lays a curse on the beautiful child.

We were to discover what form this curse was to take later that evening when hospital security forces cordoned off the maternity ward at Sacred Heart. Apparently some concern had arisen that we would attempt to blow that popstand and high tail it to the winter hills with our newborn, inoculating him with the dread HIV, the virus which causes AIDS, through mama's contaminated breasts. Into this increasingly surreal and nightmarish scenario came the petitioner from the court, a character out of a Kafka novel, with her sidekick, a uniformed officer of the law. We were informed that the State of Oregon had taken custody of Felix. The petitioner handed me a summons. We were charged with "intent to harm" Felix. Apparently if you don't buy into the unsubstantiated gibberish promulgated by the CDC you are intending to harm your newborn baby. Felix was released to our physical custody on the condition that we poison him with .65 ml of AZT every six hours and did not breastfeed him.

At the hearing on the 11th this order was amended to read "follow medical advice", which we have done to the utmost of our ability, consulting with physicians from around the world in earnest attempt to care for Felix in a manner consistent with the most scientific, state-of-the-art thinking in this matter.

Now it seems to me that this sort of medical fascism has implications on the civil liberties of us all. When the State sees fit to literally hold your child in ransom for your cooperation with a highly controversial and experimental health program, which is based on an unproved hypothesis which is, in turn, challenged by some of the best minds in the world, something is horribly amiss. No longer can any of us feel aloof from the fray. Our science, our dignity as responsible citizens and our desire as parents to insure the welfare of our children is all being swept aside by the paranoid plague mongers of the Center for Disease Control.

As I discovered it is a mistake to believe that maybe if you ignore them they will go away.

The malignancy of the 50 billion dollars a year HIV/AIDS industry includes lucrative research grants, the HIV test kit business and pharmaceutical giants like Glaxo Wellcome. Tens of thousands of people are employed in this racket, er, industry. Tens of thousands of people owe their livelihood to the unlikely hypothesis that HIV causes AIDS. And some of them even know how to compose pamphlets instructing us on the techniques of safe sex and how to bleach our hypodermics before shooting up.

For a major institution like the CDC to admit such colossal and murderous blunder is not very likely. If there is evidence against their theory they can manufacture contrary evidence in a matter of hours. The financial muscle of their buddies over at Glaxo Wellcome can wheel into position a formidable arsenal of attorneys and so-called experts to dupe the public. About the only thing they don't have in their favor is the truth, the scientific truth and nothing but the scientific truth. And the powerful thing about the scientific truth is that eventually it is all so obvious to everyone we wonder how we could ever have thought otherwise, and the wool falls from our eyes. And we recognize the wicked ones in our midst.

I look forward to seeing them on the witness stand under oath. I look forward to seeing them behind bars. *
