Summary | This is a critical analysis of the HIV-T4-CELL-AIDS hypothesis. The authors question the widely accepted theory that HIV causes AIDS. They argue that the evidence supporting this theory is based on the relationship between a positive HIV antibody test and AIDS. However, they raise concerns about the accuracy of the test and the lack of a gold standard for verifying its sensitivity and specificity. The authors also discuss the role of T4 lymphocytes in the immune response and highlight studies that suggest T cells have both suppressive and helper activities. They conclude that further research is needed to fully understand the relationship between HIV, T4 cells, and AIDS.
