Download or read book Sida opium diamants et empire written by Nancy Turner Banks and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce serait une grave erreur de croire que les guerres sont seulement une question d'armées engagées de manière active. Les véritables forces du mal mènent une guerre financière. Les princes noirs du financement par endettement ont pris le contrôle de toutes les institutions sociales, économiques et politiques, y compris du système des soins médicaux. Dans cet ouvrage, Nancy Turner Banks expose les rapports existant entre les stratégies de l'économie de marché, la destruction de la souveraineté nationale par le processus de mondialisation et le " SIDA " en tant que conséquence sur la santé d'une philosophie néo-darwinienne. A travers une recherche méticuleuse, elle a découvert la manière dont, il y a cent ans, le complexe industriel pharmacomédical est tombé sous le contrôle des titans du capitalisme financier. Le but de ceux-ci était de réaliser un maximum de bénéfices et non de vaincre la maladie. Cet ouvrage d'histoire sociale semble indiquer qu'un ensemble fatidique d'événements historiques a contribué à provoquer la crise de ce que l'on a appelé le " VIH/SIDA ". Ce livre relate la dramatique histoire d'une idéologie financière qui est hautement nuisible pour tout ce qui est humain. C'est une histoire qui montre comment la recherche du profit a pu devenir plus importante que le sort des hommes. Cependant, on y trouve également une lueur d'espoir qui nous permet d'entrevoir la manière dont nous pouvons retrouver notre équilibre mental et notre santé au sein d'un monde devenu fou.

Download or read book L invention du virus du sida written by Peter H.. Duesberg and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le VIH n'est pas la cause du Sida... Le Sida n'est pas sexuellement transmissible... Les médicaments antirétroviraux provoquent des maladies symptomatiques du sida... Tels sont les arguments du Dr. Peter Duesberg, un des plus prestigieux microbiologistes du monde, membre de la National Academy of Science des États-Unis, pionnier de la virologie et de la rétrovirologie. Si le VIH est la cause du SIDA, pourquoi des milliers de victimes du SIDA n'ont-elles jamais été infectées par le VIH ? Le courant scientifique dominant a éludé cela. Pourquoi des centaines de milliers de personnes ayant été, depuis de nombreuses années, infectées par le VIH, sont-elles demeurées en parfaite santé ? Le courant dominant a appelé ces personnes des «contrôleurs d'élite» mais n'a jamais été en mesure de fournir la moindre explication à ce phénomène. Pourquoi Luc Montagnier, le découvreur du virus VIH, affirme-t-il désormais que ce virus ne peut être la seule cause du SIDA ? Pourquoi n'a-t-on encore pu mettre au point aucun vaccin, après plus de vingt-sept années de recherches, alors que Jenner avait produit le premier vaccin antiviral contre la variole au départ d'une vache atteinte de la vaccine. Dans ce livre, Peter Duesberg soutient que le SIDA est une épidémie de nature toxique (chimique) et non virale. N'étant, par conséquent, pas contagieux, il ne peut être traité par un vaccin, et se trouve en corrélation avec une consommation à long terme de drogue et/ou de médicaments antiviraux, ou encore avec les conséquences biochimiques de la pauvreté et de la malnutrition.

Download or read book HIV and the Blood Supply written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-10-05 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early years of the AIDS epidemic, thousands of Americans became infected with HIV through the nation's blood supply. Because little reliable information existed at the time AIDS first began showing up in hemophiliacs and in others who had received transfusions, experts disagreed about whether blood and blood products could transmit the disease. During this period of great uncertainty, decision-making regarding the blood supply became increasingly difficult and fraught with risk. This volume provides a balanced inquiry into the blood safety controversy, which involves private sexual practices, personal tragedy for the victims of HIV/AIDS, and public confidence in America's blood services system. The book focuses on critical decisions as information about the danger to the blood supply emerged. The committee draws conclusions about what was doneâ€"and recommends what should be done to produce better outcomes in the face of future threats to blood safety. The committee frames its analysis around four critical area: Product treatmentâ€"Could effective methods for inactivating HIV in blood have been introduced sooner? Donor screening and referralâ€"including a review of screening to exlude high-risk individuals. Regulations and recall of contaminated bloodâ€"analyzing decisions by federal agencies and the private sector. Risk communicationâ€"examining whether infections could have been averted by better communication of the risks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight years after the first recognition of AIDS, new insights into the distribution and expression of the disease continue to accumulate as fast as the inexorable increase in cases.

Download or read book In vivo Models of HIV Disease and Control written by Herman Friedman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-04-27 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An AIDS vaccine is still elusive and HIV treatment continues to develop multidrug resistance at alarming rates. Because of the similarities between HIV and immune deficiency infections in a variety of animals, it is only natural that scientists use these animals as models to study pathogenesis, treatment, vaccine development and many other aspects of HIV. Part of the series Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis, this volume reviews the immune deficiency virus in a variety of hosts. Pathogenesis, vaccine and drug development, epidemiology, and the natural history of the monkey, mouse, cat, cow, horse, and other animal viruses are detailed and compared to HIV. Also included are chapters on the history and future of animal models, as well as a chapter on ethical and safety considerations in using animal models for AIDS studies.
