From: AidsMythExposed forumMSN Nicknamemyth-buster (Original Message) Sent: 8/19/2006 11:29 AM On August 13, 2006 a panel at the XVI Int'l. AIDS Conference in Toronto was titled "HIV Science and Responsible Journalism." The co-moderator was Laurie Garrett, former journalist and author and now a "senior fellow for global health" at the Council on Foreign Relations. Panel members included several leading journalists and John Moore, Ph.D., Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at Weill Medical College of Cornell University. The editor of The Lancet spoke from the audience. The complete 80-plus page transcript of this panel, as well as a downloadable mp3 audio podcast and a streaming video recording of it, are online at the Kaiser Foundation's site here:http://www.kaisernetwork.org/health_cast/hcast_index.cfm?display=detail&hc=1786Many familiar names get the full, below-the-belt treatment, including Duesberg, Farber, Maggiore, Scheff, Crowe, Rasnick, and Rath (and of course Mbeki). If you can bear accessing the record of this incredible and truly nauseating event, which unabashedly advocates various forms of intimidation and outright censorship of dissenting opinions, you may agree with me that previous comparisons here and elsewhere of what's going on today with AIDS, Inc. and Nazi Germany (or other past and present examples of violent fascism-statism-authoritarianism) are not too far off the mark. As this Toronto panel proves, the book burners are coming - actually, sadly, they are already here and firmly ensconced. The enormous record generated by the entire Toronto 2006 AIDS Conference only adds to that perception as well as to one's concern about the future.
