millwall32 114 Posted November 14, 2005 According to this article, a British man is claiming to be cured from hiv Caution over HIV 'cure' claims Two interesting things about that story. He clearly got a false positive and then went back and got, imagine the surprise, a negative. Also did you see the look of deep boredom and ingratitude on his face when he was on the news over the weekend. He simply said, in a northern gay Alan Bennet via Mavis Barroclough voice, "Well I supopose its quite good news" rather than being delighted that he was, so far as he is concerned, the first human to be "cured" of A.I.D.S. It backs up my pet theory that on the morning they do find an A.I.D.S cure there will not be widespread f*****g in the streets so much as load of people saying "What a palaver" and worrying about their cholesterol count instead.

millwall32 114 Posted November 14, 2005 At the risk of having offended the gay community or any who may have lost friends, family, or amy themselves be carrying the death spore I would like to ammend the above post. He is of copurse Scotish rather than a northerner. I would therefore like to say that he was talking in a "Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" bored gay voice rather than one resembling that of Alan Bennet. All apologies for any offence caused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,235 Posted November 14, 2005 If he is telling the truth, he is being mightily selfish not allowing any further testing on himself. He could save millions of lives. Oh. Wait a minute.....DEATHlist.net...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scsibear 4 Posted November 14, 2005 Personally I think the worst part about this whole story is that apparently he was diagnosed positive then he's cured.... What about this..... The people who tested him say they got it correct originally...What if they actually got the samples mixed up...That means there is some poor bugger out there with AIDS and doesn't know it !!!!!

Saint Peter 14 Posted November 15, 2005 There are quite a lot of famous persons with the virus and still breathing. Some - like Holly Johnson and Magic Johnson - looking pretty fit. Wikipedia has the lowdown. It's been a little while since I said anything contentious, so here goes............ How many on that Wiki list bite pillows for pleasure? How many are innocent victims? There Four catagories in which aids is transmitted. 1) Normal sexual relations between male and female. 2) Hospital infection through infected products such as blood. 3) Useing needles from infected drug users. And Finally 4) Pile Pushing where either the pitcher or the catcher is infected. But hey, I'm no doctor. If I was I would be a gyno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windsor 2,235 Posted December 1, 2005 It's world aids day today and so there has been fundraising and further awareness of the disease. The students of Aberdeen University also played their part. By selling red ribbons. They were also giving out free condoms to every Tom, Dick and Harry. I was pleased when they even considered myself recieving a free condom (not because I have aids but because they must have seen me as a 'stud-muffin' ). Needless to say I ignored them and quickly filed past. After all I am a single monarchist studying history and politics with a morbid intrest in the death of celebrities. Was anyone else offered anything for World Aids Day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
