Men and women wait in a long line at an AIDS clinic in Lusikisiki, South Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa is the epicenter of the AIDS crisis. The region is home to some 66 percent of the world's cases and 80 percent of its deaths.Botched vaccinations blamed for Aids in Africa
An international team of scientists says only 30 per cent of HIV cases were sexually transmitted
By Nigel Hawkes, Health Editor, and Michael Dynes in Johannesburg
THE African Aids pandemic was caused more by careless use of needles in healthcare than by unsafe sex, a report published today by an international group of scientists says.
They estimate that more than half the cases of Aids in Africa before 1988 were caused by unsterilised needles. The claim, directly challenging the belief that 90 per cent of cases were sexually transmitted, implies that the African Aids pandemic is largely the result of unsafe medical practices and mismanaged vaccination campaigns.
The team says that the evidence was discounted because of “preconceptions about African sexuality and a desire to maintain public trust in healthcare”.

Please be sure to peep my man Temple3's magnum opus work in progress on this very subject...,
Intriguing, DV. I had never heard of this 2003 study.
But don't stop there, bruh. Google around, read more about it. The controversy is fascinating.
Let me put this forward: One of the authors of this study, John Potterat, said in 2005:
"As for 'iatrogenic' (which means physician-caused), it's probably most fair to think of non-sterile punctures as being mostly perpetrated by non-physicians.
"There are too few physicians in Africa to cause such a massive epidemic (or so it seems to me); they tend to practice at the district or academic institution levels.
"Rather I suspect that it is the 'barefoot doctor' medical or dental provider, or the informal village injectionist, or family members who inject each other (a common practice in Uganda, for example) who have probably done the most damage.
"Thus prevention initiatives to discourage iatrogenic HIV transmission won't be as easy as you may think: these folks may be hard to reach and teach."
This means, DV, that the AIDS-spread-by-injection hypothesis does not necessarily indict the medical profession... or medical professionals.
Um ...
Let's think about this Mills. Let us employ our native intelligence, our educations and our respective intellectual courage. Shall we?
Cool.
1) The "World Health Organization", or "UNICEF" or "The Bill & Melinda Gates Foudation" or some other euphemistically titled organization decides they just love little poor sub-Saharan Africans to death. To demonstrate this love they decide to save the human population of Mother Africa by manufacturing and distributing hundreds of millions of doses of polio and smallpox vaccines.
2) Subsequently AIDS explodes in Africa and tens of millions of people die.
3) Initially unsafe sex is blamed for the explosion of AIDS and Africans are bombarded with safe sex "use a condom" media campaigns. (Despite the low incidence of men getting HIV from women, and the low numbers of homosexuals in Africa)
4) As the Unsafe Sex myth erodes evidence and testimony emerges that links AIDS to the massive vaccinations program that preceded the outbreak ... neither the World Health Organization, UNICEF nor Bill and Melinda Gates who conceived, financed, planned and implemented the program are blamed - but the African foot soldiers employed to administer the vaccinations, to hold open the mouths of thousands of little black babies so the drugs could be introduced into their bodies - are implied to be at fault for millions of Africans getting AIDS after getting vaccines.
I don't know Dave. That's like blaming the Jews who helped unload the trains at Auschwitz for the entire Holocaust.
Only reason not to see the connection between vaccines and AIDS is not wanting to see it.
Internationalists, eugenicists, and billionaires don't distribute hundreds of millions of doses of expensive vaccines to poor fertile Africans and JUST FORGET to hand out cheap clean needles too.
Vaccinations are the new Gas Chambers.
I'm just telling you what the dude who co-wrote the study YOU cited said.
If you only want to accept the information that validates your pre-set agendas, that's on you.
Don't be afraid to read more. It's all at your fingertips, DV.
Ahhhhhh ... Daaaaaaaave.
How you going to chump out on me man?
Are you saying there is no need to raise our eyebrows about the links between mass vaccinations and the AIDS pandemic?
I get it. LOL. Of course you are more comfortable believing vaccines made with monkey viruses, didn't cause AIDS in people. It's the stupid niggers who used dirty needles to inject the monkey viruses into people who are to blame.
"Weeze Know Massssa Aint Make No MeStake!"
LOL. Just playin'. But come on man.
I know you are on Google right now searching for some simple "debunk statement" to discredit this obvious truth.
LOL.
When you finish that. Please tell me what you think probably happened.
I am actually interested in what YOU think.
If you mock Nulan for reading books... and mock me for doing Google searches... damn, it's starting to look like you're fucking allergic to data.
But that's all right, DV. You know me. I'ma do my shit regardless.
Now... you wrote:

Raise your eyebrows, scrunch up your nose, poke out your lower lip... do whatever you wanna do, DV.
But dudes of serious intellect put their own ideas to the test. They challenge themselves. And they acquire more and more information because the intellect feeds on that.
How might we test your premise about a link between mass vaccinations and the AIDS pandemic? Well... start by finding an African nation with a low HIV infection rate. Such as Senegal. (You could find this out via Wikipedia, as a shortcut.)
Then find out whether they do mass vaccinations in Senegal.
Guess what, slickster? Senegal be immunizing babies like a muhfuggah!
Between 1999 and 2002, Senegal imported 25 million doses of vaccines to combat polio, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, measles and childhood TB.
The Senegalese government is pushing hard to immunize as many of its children as possible. It began doing so in 1985... at the behest of those satanic globalists at UNICEF and the World Health Organization.
And yet... the HIV infection rate in Senegal has never risen above 2 percent, compared with 20 percent in some African countries.
Now do you think maybe, just maybe, DV, your bucket’s got a hole in it?
Nah D. All for data. But I do find cats who seek authority (authorship) to validate every assertion lame.
If I ask you if OJ killed Nicole, you don't have to quote one of the hundreds of books written on the subject.
You can tell me what you think based upon the information you have consumed.
There is "data" that supports mass vaccinations and there is "data" that sounds alarms about vaccinations.
Are the polio vaccine programs blanketing Senegal causing an AIDS pandemic in Senegal?
Apparently not.
Doesn't mean the polio vaccine is not causing the AIDS epidemic in Congo nor does it mean the polio vaccine in Senegal is not a ticking time bomb triggering some other health catastrophe in Senegal down the road.
KADUNA, Nigeria, March 11, 2004 London Times - A UNICEF campaign to vaccinate Nigeria's youth against polio may have been a front for sterilizing the nation.
Dr. Haruna Kaita, a pharmaceutical scientist and Dean of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria, took samples of the vaccine to labs in India for analysis.
Using WHO-recommended technologies like Gas Chromatography (GC) and Radio-Immuno assay, Dr. Kaita, upon analysis, found evidence of serious contamination. "Some of the things we discovered in the vaccines are harmful, toxic; some have direct effects on the human reproductive system," he said in an interview with Kaduna's Weekly Trust.
"I and some other professional colleagues who are Indians who were in the Lab could not believe the discovery," he said.
A Nigerian government doctor tried to persuade Dr. Kaita that the contaminants would have no bearing on human reproduction. "…I was surprised when one of the federal government doctors was telling me something contrary to what I have learned, studied, taught and is the common knowledge of all pharmaceutical scientists -- that estrogen cannot induce an anti-fertility response in humans," he said. "I found that argument very disturbing and ridiculous."
When asked by the Trust why Dr. Kaita felt the drug manufacturers would have contaminated the Oral Polio Vaccine, he gave three reasons: "These manufacturers or promoters of these harmful things have a secret agenda which only further research can reveal.
Secondly they have always taken us in the third world for granted, thinking we don't have the capacity, knowledge and equipment to conduct tests that would reveal such contaminants.
And very unfortunately they also have people to defend their atrocities within our midst, and worst still some of these are supposed to be our own professionals who we rely on to protect our interests."
Dr. Kaita is demanding that "those who imported this fake drug in the name of Polio Vaccines…be prosecuted like any other criminal."
The campaign to rid Nigeria of polio is in its fourth year. Officials there claim that all contaminated vaccines have been exhausted and replaced by uncontaminated batches.
In a rhetorical conclusion to the interview, Dr. Kaita asked "What plans has the government put in place to help children who have been given these toxic and contaminated vaccines in case they start reacting to them?"
This is not the first time UNICEF has been embroiled in a controversy over sterilizing agents in vaccines. LifeSiteNews.com reported that in 1995, the Catholic Women's League of the Philippines won a court order halting a UNICEF anti-tetanus program because the vaccine had been laced with B-hCG, which when given in a vaccine permanently causes women to be unable to sustain a pregnancy. The Supreme Court of the Philippines found the surreptitious sterilization program had already vaccinated three million women, aged 12 to 45. B-hCG-laced vaccine was also found in at least four other developing countries.
You a trip, DV... anti-abortion but pro-polio.
UBM,
"You a trip, DV... anti-abortion but pro-polio."
DAYUM!! I have tears in my eyes, wow, you brothers are going at it.
DV,
My problem with your premise DV is that you are lumping all vaccines together. What mechanism of action do you think is causing HIV infection?
Look, diverting attention to some conspiracy theory with little to no serious evidence is ridiculous. But, I suppose this is how conspiracy theories survive.
If you know that jumping out of a high tree could cause you to break your leg, why are you making a big fuss about the possibility of slipping off the ladder that could get you safely to the ground?
The benefit of vaccines far outweigh the risks to a society. However, if you are the one who happens to experience an adverse side-effect, the Risk-Benefit ratio is of no consequence to you.
The numbers just aren't on your side.
Nah D.
I thought if anybody were to get me, it would be you. But you off about me.
I'm not anti-abortion.
I'm anti-bullshit.
People who like to think of themselves as "pro-abortion" MUST convert abortion in their minds into something with which they are comfortable.
For example: "ABORTION" becomes "CHOICE".
An "unborn child" becomes "just a fetus".
When confronted with images of little dismembered human bodies they convince themselves they are not looking at ripped off heads, lacerated faces, torn little finger, eyes, tongues, noses, eyelashes and family features, but at "globs of cells".
You are comforted by the thought that the Plantation (Massa) has magical healing powers, (Da white man's medicine) that can save us all from a terrible disease like polio.
When in fact the evidence suggests the polio virus - like millions of other viruses - was dying out long before Salk took viruses from monkey kidneys and injected them into kids.
Europeans never took the Salk vaccine, yet polio rates plummeted in that country as well.
So Brother Mills. I am not anti-Polio. I'm anti-Hype. I'm anti-Mass Mystery Inoculations of African People By Eugenecists that happens to COINCIDE with the deaths of millions of Africans to something they tell us is just ... AIDS.
DV a memetic Ricky Ross...,
Here's a lay-question i'll throw in here.
Dave/Denmark-- isn't Senegal a French colony, i.e. pretty much owned by France.
Who owns/runs Uganda.
*Because i'm a lazy bastid who doesn't feel like looking it up himself, i'm just gonna throw this rock out there and hide my hand.*
I have a theory that, as Tony Soprano might say, these people certainly wouldn't shit where they eat, if you know what i'm saying. Then again, Uganda might be a colonized country too. *shrugs* Hep a brotha out, kinfoke.
There should be a ? mark behind the who owns uganda thing, as, re-reading it, it's a bit unclear. Alright, i'm back from work, gimme a sec, i'll look it up myself.
And unfortunately, the "cure" may be even worse than the inoculation:
Hope was not only pregnant, but her uncle had infected her with HIV. Like many young girls in Zimbabwe, Hope was the victim of a widely held belief that if a man with HIV or AIDS rapes a virgin he will be cured of his disease.
What kind of man rapes his nephew, impregnates & infects her with HIV???
