Viral Load Test is valid?

The notion that Viral Load Test detects quantified amounts of HIV is questionable

  • There is a suspicion that the Viral Load tests detect and multiply only fragments of genes, not HIV.

    • Viral loads are found in healthy people who test HIV negative

    • Test manufacturers warn that viral load cannot confirm the presence of HIV.

    • The FDA has not approved viral load tests for diagnostic use

  • There is no scientific proof that high viral loads correlate with low CD4 or illness

    • There are cases of having high viral loads and high T CD4 count which is contradictory

    • There are cases of having low viral loads and low CD4 count which is contradictory

This excellent summary cuts through the jargon to bring us the facts we need to know. "One glaring problem with the HIV/AIDS hypothesis is that researchers have been unable to find enough HIV (actual virus) in people who test positive to explain compromised health. Even among patients suffering from the most severe AIDS-defining illnesses, HIV is never detected in quantities that could cause depletion of immune cells. ..."

 

Don't be distracted by the title of the paper, the authors were clearly in a trance. From the front page, third paragraph of Roche's insert for the AMPLICOR viral load PCR test: 'The AMPLICOR HIV-1 MONITOR Test is not intended to be used as a screening test for HIV or as a diagnostic test to confirm the presence of HIV infection.' False positives for HIV using commercial viral load quantification assays.

Seeing is believing - it's time to call their bluff!
Mediaeval theologians were obsessed with how many angels danced on the head of a pin. Virtual virology is a more recent phenomenon which persuades non-critical virologists that huge quantities of 'HIV' particles exist in the blood of people deemed 'HIV positive', and cause the thirty or so diseases currently supposed to make up the syndrome known as 'AIDS'.

 

The following is the end of the Perth Group's presentation A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE EVIDENCE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF HIV AND THE HIV ANTIBODY TESTS at the 12th World AIDS Conference in Geneva, June 28th 1998. It should lay to rest the fantasy that "viral load" tests measure the amount of "HIV" in the blood.

Judging by the title, you might not think this is a serious scientific paper, but it is. "For those who still think that HIV causes AIDS, the latest fad -- along with protease inhibitors -- is "viral load." There was a time not so long ago when one of the best arguments against the HIV theory was that there simply was not enough HIV in AIDS patients to account for any disease. Actually, it's still one of the best arguments! No, you say? You've heard there's some new technique that finds tons of HIV -- high viral load -- in AIDS patients? The old virus-counting method just wasn't sensitive enough, they say. Here we take a look at this new technique, and find it sadly lacking. ..."
