Clinton Foundation Watered Down AIDS Drugs For Africa
More and more people are realizing that the Clinton Foundation is a giant money laundering scheme that Hillary was using as a “pay for play” with foreign governments for “favors” during her tenure as Secretary of State and who knows how far and deep that rabbit hole truly goes. It’s global and the US government is acting like its just as untouchable as Hillary is.
While she refuses to answer...

Study: Selenium May Stop Zika Birth Defects
The dietary trace mineral selenium may reduce severe birth defects caused by Zika, a recent University of North Carolina study revealed.
The study, which was released in July but received scant media attention, says that Zika mimics a genetic disease known as PCCA by lowering selenium proteins known as selenoproteins.
“This research strongly suggests that selenium, a dietary trace mineral with a...
Hillary Slams Trump for Creating Jobs While Reading "Sigh" from Teleprompter
Hillary Clinton spoke in North Carolina on Wednesday. During her speech she defended her “personal hedge fund” (the Clinton Foundation) and knocked Donald Trump for creating jobs.
Look I know Donald hates it when anyone points out how hollow his sales pitch really is… The Clinton Foundation helps poor people around the world get access to lifesaving AIDS medicine. Donald Trump uses poor...

The president of the tiny African nation of The Gambia has reportedly threatened to kill any homosexuals in his country, adding to his long-time record of cracking down on homosexuality.
“If you do it [in The Gambia] I will slit your throat,” President Yahya Jammeh said in a public speech in the Wolof language, cited by VICE News. “If you are a man and want to marry another man in...
New American HIV vaccine showing striking results
AIDS Virus under electron microscope
A radical new type of vaccine has shown positive results during tests on HIV-positive patients, bolstering hopes of fully protecting humans from AIDS in the future, researchers say.
A new type of molecule, used in the vaccine, was engineered by scientists at the Scripps Research Institute in California, which they claim blocks the HIV virus from attaching to cells,...
New clues found on how to stop HIV evade detection
Scientists have taken crucial steps in their quest for finding a remedy for HIV by finding clues about how the virus manages to evade detection after being suppressed by drugs.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland, made the announcement on Wednesday after they analyzed blood samples from 25 patients with the human immunodeficiency virus, AFP reported.
After...
In Ebola Outbreak, Who Should Get Experimental Drug?
Some have said it is wrong that with hundreds of Africans dying from the outbreak of Ebola, extremely scarce supplies of an experimental drug went to two white American aid workers.
But what if the first doses of the drug, which had never been used in people and had not even finished the typical animal safety testing, had been given to African patients instead?
“It would have been the front-page...
Soy sauce molecules effectively fight HIV
More than a decade after a Japanese soy sauce manufacturer said it had discovered a molecule in its sauce that could be used to fight HIV, the findings have been confirmed by university scientists.
According to a team of virologists at the University of Missouri, a flavor-enhancing molecule found in soy sauce – called EFdA – is up to 70 times more powerful than typical drugs like Tenofovir, which...
Free, hi-tech HIV vaccine coming soon
A revolutionary, free and crowd-funded HIV vaccine is in the works. Its creators use a machine learning algorithm to examine the cells of rare individuals naturally immune to the virus to then re-engineer the same biological process in others.
The Immunity Project, as the team is called, is completely crowd-funded. Not only does it promise an effective vaccine this time around, it uses a revolutionary...
HIV infection cases on rise in Greece, officials warn

Scientists unravel biggest mystery of HIV
Scientists have finally found a way to outsmart the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or rather, its ability to hide from the antibodies and immune cells. This is the quality that makes HIV so dangerous. However, researchers were able to find a way to create an effective cure for AIDS using the substance tacrolimus and finally win over the dangerous disease.
The main difficulty against the human...
Second NY hospital warns nearly 2,000 patients of possible HIV infection from insulin pens
A hospital in New York State has notified 1,915 patients that they may have been exposed to HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C – days after another hospital in NY admitted making the same mistake – through reusing insulin pens, used by diabetics.
Olean General Hospital is mailing 1,915 patients who received insulin between November 2009 and last week and advising them to have a blood test, although...
Science finds out why specific cells let HIV in
Dendritic and T-cells are integral parts of the human immune system
Scientists at George Mason University have carried out a groundbreaking new research project, finally revealing the reason why the deadly HIV virus targets only a specific kind of T-cell.
The new discovery may change the way the disease is tackled. The study, which was recently published online, will appear in October’s Journal of...
Chagas disease: New AIDS of the Americas can cause victims hearts to explode
The new AIDS? A parasitic illness called Chagas disease has been dubbed the 'new AIDS of the Americas' by experts. It is usually transmitted from the bite of blood-sucking insect species called Triatome bugs, which include 'Kissing bugs' (Triatomids)
A little-known life-threatening illness caused by blood sucking insects has been labelled the ‘new AIDS of the Americas’ by experts.
