I've been reading articles and watching videos by the Nobel Prize winner and California microbiologist Kary Mullis and also Peter Deusberg.
"Both Duesberg and Mullis have emphasized that the papers of Montagnier, Gallo, and others do not present any scientific justification
that HIV causes a disease".
Yale Scientific, Fall 1994.
As of March 2017 Mullis stills stands his ground in relation to this issue.

In the 90s, a study of hetero-sexual couples where one partner was HIV positive found that transmission occurred 50% annually when coitus frequency was between 150 and 300 times per year. Transmission during heterosexual intercourse occurs, but infrequently.
Anal intercourse and active STD infections increased the frequency of HIV transmission.
There continues to be significant debate about the frequency (even possibility) of HIV transmission as a result of oral sex. Few, if any, fully documented cases exist. STD infections from oral sex DO occur, though infrequently.
Even if a sex worker has a 'higher load' of HIV cellular activity, unprotected sex of one or two incidences is statistically unlikely to transmit the virus.
On the other hand, shit does happen.
Now, an opportunity to share my favorite HIV joke:
In Harlem, one drug addict asks his friend if he can share his 'works' to inject. His friend says: "You want to use my needle? Aren't you afraid of getting HIV?" The first drug addict smiles slyly, "No, I'm not worried. I'm wearing a condom."

Ok, that was a good response. I've been reading a lot of stuff about this lately. There is a lot of conflicting information about HIV on the internet and in ex-pat communities.
On some Pattaya and Thailand forums there are a few guys who say they know someone who died from AIDS, other people who say they have never heard of it even in fifteen years.
There are stories of married men living in Asia and going to Pattaya and Bali for holidays and having unprotected sex with bar girls. They may have been drunk at the time and worry about having to wait six to eight weeks to test for any STD they may have picked up. Then when they go back to USA or UK they have to make up some excuse why they can't sleep with their wives.
Just from my own experience observing the behavior of other ex-pats it's harder to pick up an STI then what people think.
Or maybe these guys who screw around a lot develop strong resistance to all sort of STD's. It's hard to say. In Pattaya apparently the risk of HIV infection from doing bar girls bareback according to "experts" is about 10,000 to 1 for a one off encounter. about the same as being killed in an airline crash. Multiple encounters increase the risk to about 2500 to 1.
Some guys will say the risk of being killed crossing 2 nd Road in Pattaya is about 100 to 1, some say 50 to 1. For some people it's all about calculating odds and risk.

The academic medical community, albeit often financed by Big Pharma, is currently of one mind about HIV/Aids.
I was in medical school in the late 80s in New York when the initial research was occurring and I've followed the subject since leaving the industry.
The incidence of HIV infection is well documented and has subsided in many populations and cohorts. The 'ease' with which infection occurs has always been overblown by the media, using statistics from gay men and intravenous drug users, both of which have significantly higher activity/infections rates than heterosexual couples.
Treatment of Aids now is a medical success story, hampered only by treatment costs. http://www.healthline.com/health/hiv-aids/life-expectancy
STD infections in developing countries are nearly impossible to track anymore since treatment can occur through google and OTC pharmaceuticals.
Ex-pats that have 'bare-back' sex and return home to their wife without dosing themselves are courting disaster.

No, I look at facts and figures and why people who should have contracted HIV and AIDS and died are still well and truly alive.
I don't just believe propaganda like you do.
Recently I have done a lot of research into STD's because it has been discussed on various Asian ex-pat forums.
Over the past 10-15 years many leading medical researchers have come out in public claiming that HIV does not cause AIDS, even some saying that HIV itself does not exist.
Many "HIV positive" people have stated that they felt better or normal when they stopped taking the anti-viral drugs: Is this because they were never sick in the first place and it was the drugs making them ill?
In 1984 we were led to believe that AIDS was like bubonic plague and smallpox, etc and a threat to the existence of this civilization. That was obviously rubbish.
I know from personal experience that "HIV infection rate" figures are wildly exaggerated in Bangkok and Pattaya for example. If there was so much HIV all over they place people would be dropping like flies.
There are plenty of Western guys in places like Pattaya and Bali who have been doing hundreds of bar girls bareback for over a decade. Why are they still around? They should all be dead.
I do not know any promiscuous ex-pat in China or Thailand ( I know heaps of them ) who has died from this mystery HIV/AIDS illness. I hardly know of any who even contracted ANY STD at all!
I'm not saying that people should just fuck around with dozens of other people and not use condoms as there are real STD's, but there is no "AIDS epidemic". I suspect this is all just a money making hoax perpetrated by big pharma corporations and corrupt politicians.
There is also crap about an "AIDS epidemic" in India, but in reality hardly anyone in India has died from this mystery illness which probably never existed in the first place. It is something else killing them.
