The interesting thing was that in the first few years of the epidemic, if you look at what happened to people with Pneumocystis as their first manifestation of AIDS, their life expectancy stabilized or improved a little bit over the first few years of the epidemic.

With KS, exactly the opposite was the case. Early in the epidemic, people with KS had a better prognosis than later, after the first couple, three years of the epidemic. This was because the oncologists were just blasting the KS patients with chemotherapy and further depressing their immune system, and so their life expectancy went down.

Review: In "AIDS, Inc.", Dr. Null blows the lid off the wealthy AIDS industry and shows how greed and corruption have hampered progress in fighting the epidemic or its underlying causes. For this important film, documentary filmmaker and health expert Gary Null traveled to more than 30 countries over an eight-year period to interview these industry critics. This is the first film on AIDS that brings the most compelling of their arguments together in one place. -- UPSTAGE MAGAZINE  read more »
