	Peter Duesberg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peter H. Duesberg (born December 2, 1936 in Germany) is an award-winning professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California, Berkeley.
		...Peter Duesberg is a man of extraordinary energy, unusual honesty, enormous sense of humour, and a rare critical sense.
		Mainstream AIDS researchers argue that Duesberg’s arguments are constructed by selective reading of the scientific literature, dismissing evidence that contradicts his theses, requiring impossibly definitive proof, and dismissing outright studies marked by inconsequential weaknesses.

	Duesberg hypothesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Duesberg hypothesis is the claim that chemicals from recreational and pharmaceutical drug use, and not HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), is the primary cause of AIDS.
		Duesberg supposes that a major component of the present day 'drug craze' that wasn't present in the 60's is the use of 'poppers' aka amyl nitrite and butyl nitrite, inhaled by mostly gay men to enhance their sexual experiences.
		Peter Duesberg argues that retroviruses like HIV must be harmless to survive, because after reverse transcription of their RNA to DNA, they depend on cell division to replicate.

	Guardian lit. \| Paradigm Lost By Susan Gerhard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Duesberg has been saying since 1987 that HIV does not meet "Koch's postulates," the classic criteria necessary to prove that it is a causative agent of a disease.
		Duesberg is in a better position to see that than most: like many leading AIDS researchers, he's a veteran of the war on cancer.
		Duesberg takes pleasure in pointing out the intersections of scientific and financial interests; he notes that Gallo, for instance, filed the patent for his virus antibody test the same day Margaret Heckler, Secretary of Health and Human Services, announced in a government press conference that the HIV retrovirus probably causes AIDS.

	Amazon.com: Inventing the AIDS Virus: Books: Peter H. Duesberg (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Duesberg, himself a virologist, stoutly maintains that HIV cannot cause AIDS because it fails to meet the rules by which a virus is implicated as disease-causing.
		Duesberg's own theory is that AIDS is linked to the use of immunity-suppressing illicit drugs (such as crack and ``poppers''), and he urges investigation along these lines.
		If Duesberg is right (and I think, at least as far as HIV is concerned, he is), then this is very GOOD news for thousands of people who have been infected with what would appear to be a very old and not terribly interesting passenger virus.

	The AIDS Heretic Who Won't Die (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Although Duesberg continues to argue that the amount of virus seen in humans should not, in principle, be capable of wreaking so much harm, the fact is that the amount seen in monkeys with AIDS is about the same as is found in humans.
		In 1987, Duesberg stated that the major obstacle to his accepting the HIV hypothesis was not the lack of epidemiological evidence, but the dearth of information as to how the virus could possibly cause AIDS, given its lack of "biochemical activity" and the low amount of the virus present in the blood.
		Duesberg, to be sure, claims that "the death rate in the AZT group was 25 percent higher than in the control group" (330 1), but he misinterprets the numbers to reach this conclusion.

	Bestselling author Michael Fumento reports: "A Complicated Disease Won't Have Simple Answers."
		Duesberg's methodology in determining that HIV doesn't cause AIDS is less science than a game in which he tells his opponents to go into a round room and sit in a corner.
		Duesberg says the AIDS pathogen must cause disease immediately, but HTLV-I, which, like HIV, is a retrovirus, usually takes a decade or longer to manifest as disease (an adult leukemia) in humans.
		Because Duesberg is willing to have others die for his hypothesis, last year I publicly challenged him to put his life where his mouth is and inject himself publicly with a purified form of the virus.

	The Body's Knowledge
		Peter Duesberg, an illustrious professor of molecular and cellular biology at the University of California at Berkeley, would beg to differ.
		Duesberg brings to mind certain Christian fundamentalist groups that, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, still view AIDS as a specifically gay disease.
		And bad interpretations, be they Duesberg's claim that AIDS is not infectious or a young woman's vague sense that she is not at risk, abound.

		Peter H. Duesberg, Professor of Molecular Biology at Berkeley, was in New York City a couple of weeks ago for a leukemia conference.
		Duesberg spoke on January 12, 1987 to a Town Meeting in San Francisco, which was attended by 600 people (several hundred more were turned away for lack of seating).
		In addition to supporting the analysis of Peter Duesberg, Sonnabend gave additional reasons of his own why HIV was a poor candidate as the cause of AIDS.

		At a conference last weekend in Oakland, Duesberg and a group of 50 experts gathered to present data and debate the hypothesis that "aneuploidy," a term for duplicated or deformed chromosomes, is the cause of cancer.
		Duesberg, of the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California-Berkeley, disagrees.
		Duesberg re-emerged on the scene in a paper published in 2000, when he reviewed many of the inconsistencies dogging the mutation theory of cancer.

	Duesberg Hypothesis
		However, Duesberg is one of the most outspoken critics of the HIV hypothesis.
		In support of the Duesberg hypothesis, Duesberg points to a statistical correlation between decreases in recreational drug use and decreases in reported AIDS cases.
		Duesberg also points to the fact that a significant number of AIDS victims die without any trace of HIV infection, and that reported AIDS cases in Africa, where no attempt is made to test for HIV infection, are not limited to risk groups such as drug addicts and male homosexuals.

	Prism Online
		Duesberg first became interested in retroviruses, the family of viruses to which HIV belongs, because they were, as he says, "the hot thing in cancer." And at the time the German-born scientist came to UC Berkeley, cancer was the hot thing in biological science, and the United States was the hot place to study it.
		Duesberg didn't believe it, and the more he researched, the more he believed that the scientists of the world were on the biggest wild goose chase in medical history.
		Duesberg says that because the theory of HIV was endorsed by the Secretary of Health before it was even published, the government staked a claim and has been very adamant about protecting that claim.

		And so, 10 days before attending this eccentric symposium, Duesberg had to dash off a desperate letter to Abraham Katz, one of the handful of rich philanthropists who have been his sole source of funding since he was cut off from all the normal channels five years ago.
		Although these dissenting theories of AIDS did not originate with Duesberg, he soon became their champion--and thus the target of derision for those who feared that disagreement among scientists could confuse the public and endanger its health.
		Duesberg himself is pessimistic that he will ever be welcomed back into the club.

	Red Flags - ONLINE CONFERENCE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		In the fall of 1994, when all his grants had become unworthy of funding, students were warned not to seek Peter Duesberg’s mentorship, he was no longer considered qualified to offer graduate-level classes, and he had gone from chairman of the seminar committee to organizer of the yearly departmental picnic.
		Peter told him that he would carefully read the proffered offer at redemption and get back with his response.
		Peter spent more than a few hours rewriting the essay; his efforts included altering the title to something more appropriate to the facts.

	[No title]
		On October 26, 1990, Peter Duesberg was informed that his research grant will not be renewed when it terminates two years from now.
		The discontinuation of the grant means, in effect, the discontinuation of Duesberg as a scientist, and thereby, to the great relief of the AIDS research establishment, the end of the so-called HIV debate.
		Duesberg, a pioneer in the field of retroviruses and cancer research, shocked and infuriated the scientific world in 1987 by publishing an 18-page study in the journal CANCER RESEARCH, detailing his wall-to-wall critique of the government's theory that AIDS is caused by HIV.

	Inventing The AIDS Virus, by Peter H. Duesberg (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Duesberg's 1996 masterwork (with graduate student and co-author Bryan J. Ellison), the thundering, two-pound, 732-page Inventing the AIDS Virus debunks not only the claim that HIV causes AIDS, but the whole insensate behemoth that continues to pour billions into the pockets of the "virus-hunters" who now dominate America's monopoly medical research establishment.
		Duesberg's lonely struggle in defense of true science and against the modern, Politically Correct manipulation of science may yet be recalled as one as valiant and important as was that of Galileo four centuries before.
		This massive, closely argued and profusely annotated book — and Dr. Duesberg's epic struggle to report that the HIV emperor wears no clothes — are historic and magnificent, a must read for anyone concerned with AIDS...

	Debunking the "Infectious HIV" Theory
		Duesberg is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, and long-time insider to the discipline of virology, a world-class expert on retroviruses who knows the properties of retroviruses, and all the dirty-tricks and monetary motivations of the various establishment "AIDS authorities".
		Duesberg, the retroviral scientist from the Univ. Of Cal. at Berkeley, presents a series of 13 articles, taken from various scientific publications, presenting the argument that HIV is not the cause of AIDS, and that AIDS is not an infectious disorder.
		Duesberg sheds much light on this malady, which is inaccurately and unfactually promoted by government and the medical industry as an "infectious disorder for which everyone is at risk".

		If the world were not bent, Peter Duesberg would have received the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the oncogene-the heritable viral genetic element that may cause tumors.
		Duesberg's dissent prompted another doctrine: people, especially credible scientists, who contest the doctrine are `irresponsible' renegades who must be isolated and their reputations destroyed, lest they confuse public.
		Duesberg concludes his book on an upbeat note by pointing to the growing visibility of dissent from the orthodoxy and by outlining his solution to the AIDS epidemic.
