r. Stefan Lanka Exposes The 'Viral Fraud'

Pictures of 'Isolated Viruses' Debunked

Dr. Stefan Lanka, virologist and molecular biologist, is internationally
mostly known as an 'AIDS dissident' (and maybe 'gentechnology dissident')
who has been questioning the very existence of 'HIV' since 1994. In the
past years, however, he stumbled over a breathtaking fact: Not even ONE of
the (medically relevant) viruses has ever been isolated; there is no proof
of their existence. Actually, Dr. Lanka has already stated three years ago,
in the almost 'legendary' Zenger´s interview: 'So for a long time I studied
virology, from the end to the beginning, from the beginning to the end, to
be absolutely sure that there was no such thing as HIV. And it was easy for
me to be sure about this because I realized that the whole group of viruses
to which HIV is said to belong, the retroviruses -- as well as other
viruses which are claimed to be very dangerous -- in fact do not exist at
all.' So he was thoroughly reading the literature on those 'other viruses'
again, and after he could still not find any paper which would provide the
evidence, he encouraged people not to BELIEVE him but to ask the institutes
and authorities themselves. This has actually taken place, mostly initiated
by mothers. The responses were revealing. In September 2001 the German book
'Impfen - Völkermord im dritten Jahrtausend? ' (Vaccination - Genocide in
the third millennium?) by Stefan Lanka and Karl Krafeld was published in
which they state that there is still no proof of any (medically relevant)
virus.

This movement (klein-klein- aktion ~ many little actions/steps) has a German
website: www.klein-klein- aktion.de which I have taken (and translated) all
the following texts from.

For almost one year we have been asking authorities, politicians and
medical institutes after the scientific evidence for the existence of such
viruses that are said to cause disease and therefore require
'immunization' . After almost one year we have not received even one
concrete answer which provides evidence for the existence of those
'vaccination viruses'. The conclusion is inevitable that our children are
still vaccinated on the basis of scientific standards of the 18th and 19th
century. In the 19th century Robert Koch demanded in his generally accepted
postulates evidence of the virus in order to prove infection; at Koch´s
time this evidence couldn´t be achieved directly by visualization and
characterization of the viruses, because adequate technology wasn´t
available at that time. Methods of modern medicine have profoundly changed
over the past 60 years, in particular by the invention of the electron
microscope. And still all these viruses we get immunized against have never
been re-examined using this technology?
Several images and explanations that we were pointed to and that were said
to show resp. describe (characterize) viruses, we showed to Dr. Lanka who
gives his summarizing comments:

[The German original of the following text by Stefan Lanka you can find
here (temporarily not available for technical reasons, Jan 11, 2003)]
All these photos have in common that they, resp. the authors, can´t claim
that they present a virus, as long as they do not also provide the original
publications which describe how and what from the virus has been isolated.
Such original publications are cited nowhere.
Indeed, in the entire scientific literature there´s not even one
publication, where for 'viruses in the medicine' the fulfillment of Koch´s
first postulate is even claimed. That means, that there is no proof that
from humans with certain diseases the viruses - which are held responsible
for these diseases - have been isolated. Nevertheless, this is precisely
what they publicly claim. Now, regarding the photos submitted:

1. Many of the photos are colored. This is proof enough, that they are the
(art)work of designers, because electron microscopic photos always appear
in black and white.

2. The images of the so called HIV-, measles (Masern)- and smallpox
(Pocken) viruses clearly show, as the image descriptions partly already
indicate, that these are cells wherein the viruses can allegedly be found.
Thus, nothing has been isolated. The photos actually show cells and typical
endogenous particles in them. These structures are well known and serve the
intra- and intercellular transport. Unlike viruses of the same kind - that
are always the same size and same shape (consistency) -, they differ in
size and shape (consistency) and therefore can´t be isolated.

3. In the case of the influenza- herpes-, vaccinia-, polio-, adeno- and
ebola-viruses each photo shows only a single particle; nobody claims that
they´re isolated particles, let alone particles that have been isolated
from humans.

These particles are partially the cellular particles mentioned above (#2)
resp. typical artifacts which means: structures that accrue after
inappropriate fixing and drying of the probes, while being prepared for the
electron microscope.

4. The 'isolated' polio viruses are artificial particles, generated by
suction of an indifferent mass through a very fine filter into a vacuum.
Its structure (no characteristic structures) differ clearly from the ones
of the 'viruses' in the cells. Here the information is essential that a
biochemical characterization of those 'isolated' viruses, although
'isolation' is claimed, has never been published anywhere nor has anybody
even claimed such a characterization.

5. The photo with the hepatitis B 'viruses' does not show isolated
structures, but - as the image title already says, an agglutinate. This is
the scientific/medical term for proteins from the blood that are clumped
together, as is typical for coagulations. Typically, thereby round and also
crystal structures accrue - depending on the condition of the blood sample.

In summary, it must be said that these photos are an attempt of fraud
committed by the researchers and medical scientists involved, as far as
they assert that these structures are viruses or even isolated viruses. To
what extent the involved journalists and authors of textbooks have
contributed to this fraud knowlingly or only out of gross negligence, I
don´t know. Everyone who starts a recherche in the medical literature, will
quickly encounter statements and references that Koch´s first postulate
can´t be fulfilled (i.e. Großgebauer: Eine kurze Geschichte der Mikroben,
1997 ['a little story of the microbes']; editor: Verlag für angewandte
Wissenschaft) . How these authors who claim the existence of viruses could
overlook that, remains a riddle.

Could it be that the term 'Contagium' = 'Gift' (poison/toxin) = 'Virus'
from the 18th and 19th century was applied in the 20th century to the cell
components which were named 'viruses' since the electron microscope was
introduced in 1931? And in order to hide this, the 'disease causing
viruses' have often been described but never been isolated? And then they
were used as seemingly logical explanation for poisonings and adverse
affects of vaccination, as Luhmann (1995) (i.e.) writes about the
symptomatic of Hepatitis B, which was observed for the first time in 1985
following smallpox vaccinations, and 1938 following measles vaccinations?
The copies in the textbooks show only structures within cells and nothing
that looks like isolation and thus homogenous. The biochemical
characterization, which is crucial, lacks completely.

Robert Koch and colleagues, Prof. Rush, Prof. Max von Pettenkofer, Prof.
Virchow have shown, for instance by experiments and by observation of the
Henle-Koch´s rules that by transmission of bacteria, the supposed contagium
vivum, it was not possible to cause the same disease. So Robert Koch
modified (weakened) the 3rd postulate of his teacher, the German anatomist
Henle, in the form that the generation of a similar symptom in animal
experiments would be sufficient to prove this hypothesis of disease cause,
namely the hypothesis of infectious bacteria. (See Großgebauer: Eine kurze
Geschichte der Mikroben).

So it does not surprise me that Prof. Alfred Fischer writes in his book
'Vorlesungen über Bakterien' ('[academic] lectures on bacteria') from 1897
(!): 'as is true for any infectious disease - the fact that it does not
only take the addition of the bacteria but also the unknown something of
individual predisposition, goes without saying.'

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
The point about predisposition is vital to the prescription of a remedy.

i am inclined to agree

Oh crikey, not this old chestnut again, you would have thought such scare mongerers would have dissapeared back into obscurity by now.

FACT: HIV is identifiable by electron microscope imaging, and quantifiable by in vitro analysis.

FACT: When anti-HIV medication is given to those infected, this quantifiable source of HIV virions is reduced in the blood of the patient, the CD4 count increases, and the patient returns to health.

Those who start and jump onto these ridiculous 'it's all a big lie!!' bandwagons know nothing about the nature of viruses, which are nothing more than springloaded pockets of genetic information, and not living organisms at all. Their argument has always been that only strands of DNA have been isolated, and no living pathogen has ever been found, SEE ABOVE, we know, this is what a virus actually is.

I have worked extensively in the field of HIV, both in clinics and actual wards, and regularly do work alongside many friends who are HIV practitioners. I have followed this disease very closely from it's inception, and have had many close friends die of the disease, I even in the late 80's bought into the whole prof Dewsburg propaganda (who was one of the first people to first assert these proposterous theories), and I can assure you here and now, HIV is a VERY real organism, and a VERY serious disease.

What is it exactly that these people think is making HIV+ individuals sick?, 'bad vibes'?

Why do patients respond so well to HAART, more often than not bringing them back from the brink of death, when the ONLY function this therapy has in the human body is to halt the replication of HIV?

Of course predisposition is a strong factor in the PROGRESSION of any disease, and therefore in the progression of HIV infection into AIDS, but there are certain organisms which will infect an individual REGARDLESS of predisposition, the EPIDEMIC oranisms/diseases, and HIV is one such organism/disease. Hahnemann knew this and asserted it frequently through his work, and it still astounds me that this now defunct and outdated debate rages on, especially within our own fraternity.

I myself took care of an aids victim and I do mean victim when I say she was an unsuspecting loving absolutely monogamous woman who received it from her promiscuous husband who also died of the disease.It is definitely real and it is definitely out there.It goes without saying that all medicine including homeopathy has its limitations otherwise we could resurrect the dead and live forever.

No one denies that these people are ill.

What is open to doubt is the orthodox account of the reasons for the illness.

Enough antibiotic medication combined with other orthodox treatment will be tha cause of an immune system breakdown.
 
walkin last decade
There is no doubt anymore that HIV is the only way by which an individual can develop AIDS, and that HIV is one of Hahnemann's very own epidemic pathogens, It will infect ANYONE who comes into contact with it (with the exception of a very few people who carry a certain mutated gene). You are confusing the DEVELOPMENT of HIV into AIDS with the cause of the disease, the former of course being open to MANY variables, orthodox medication, lifestyle diet, stress levels, all manner of things. But the HIV Retrovirus is ALWAYS at the root of the problem, this is now irefutable scientific fact.
 
Hahnemania last decade
Dear Pattee, I'm sure your wording was unintentional, and this was not what was meant at all, but aren't all people with HIV or AIDS victims? It doesn't really matter whether such individuals are unsuspecting, loving, and monogamous or not, they have all been infected with a killer disease.

Re: limitations though, Homoeopathy is only limited by it's materia medica for the most part, and therefore it only requires finding similiums of a particular disease to bring about it's cure. I am actually actively involved in proving new remedies, as well as reproving some old ones, in an attempt to find such remedies for HIV, two of which I have found already, which are actually in the process of being tested on HIV+ volunteers, and I am sure more will soon follow. Heh, there is actually a whole chapter of my forthcoming book dedicated to the treatment of this disease, and noooo that was not a plug for my book, for those quick to judge, just pointing out the extent of my work in this field.

Best wishes, and thanks for your support

Jacob,Thanks for your reply.I,as you already stated in response to a different posting'am only human' and I was merely venting. Upsetting you is the last thing I want to do since you take the time to respond and I admire that.Perhaps when I get my thoughts in order,I will be requiring your assistance in setting up a holistic approach to treating some personal psych. matters. Thanks in advance.
 
PatteeRan last decade
Okay, and no problem then. I was just clarifying what you meant, because as I am sure you are aware, there is, even now, a great deal of prejudice against certain sections of the community when it comes to HIV ;)

And I am more than happy to help you with any problems, whenever you're ready.
 
Hahnemania last decade
Thanks again Jacob. That was a swift response I am impressed.Should have been an E.R.doctor there would probably be less people in the cemetary.(and my appologies in advance if anyone takes me wrong,I come across as flippant but my comments come from the heart.I truly believe that we can all use bolstering from time to time lest the syphylistic types gain to much ground and we revert to the closed minded lifestyle of ancient rome though from my limited understanding there may have been lead in the drinking water.By the way Jacob ,I started a new post Re:my own ailments(if you can find it) unfortunately my mind is frequently ahead and I can't remember at the moment what I titled it.If you can give me a hand Buddy I would appreciate it.I'll find you if you don't find me first.Thanks again' Pattee

AIDS has been a concern of mine for many years . I originally wrote a series of articles in the 80.s asking for more satisfactory proof of the existence of the virus.
I also gave a lecture to a diploma awarding ceremony of Haematologists pointing out that Factor 8 AIDS was due to the gross assault on the immune system when material from as many as 300 donors could be included in a transfusion . This has since been accepted.
At the time of the homophobic outcry about homosexuality causing AIDS I wrote pointing out that that the breakdown in the immune system was caused by the fact that – with up to 1,200 sexual partners a year – there was a great deal of gonorrhoeal infection . This meant that there were repeated visits to the Doctor , who “cured” the gonorrhoea with antibiotics.
Each “CURE” involved a depression of immune system – as pointed out in the manual on Venereological Medicine by Willcox and Willcox -- with the result that AIDS became rampant in the New York bathhouse scene. The cause was NOT homosexuality OR gonorrhoea but ANTIBIOTICS:
The thing that always struck me as significant was the fact that NEVER was the AIDS virus shown to be present in the body of an AIDS victim. It was only pointed out that –this immune system is broken down and that means that the AIDS virus was here !.
Never were we shown photographic PROOF that we have taken this blood sample from an AIDS victim and here they are hundreds of them.
It is also interesting that the Gulf War Syndrome could now be included under the heading “Aids Related Conditions” – caused mainly by multiple vaccinations and antigas tablets, all pharmaceutical materials.
In this one could include the FACT that whatever causes an attack of Asthma , Astthma itself is due to a depressed immune system , which in my view relates to the increasing number of vaccinations given to young children and babies .

Dear Walkin.

'At the time of the homophobic outcry about homosexuality causing AIDS I wrote pointing out that that the breakdown in the immune system was caused by the fact that – with up to 1,200 sexual partners a year – there was a great deal of gonorrhoeal infection . This meant that there were repeated visits to the Doctor , who “cured” the gonorrhoea with antibiotics.'
Okay, firstly, not ALL Homosexuals OR PWA's have, or have had up to 1,200 sexual partners a year, you are thinking of the Homosexual stereotype, which of course is only the most VISIBLE section of that community. I personally know, and have known many Homosexuals who have had no more sexual partners than the average Heterosexual. Also of course, only a very small percentage of Homosexuals have had gonnhorrea compared to those who have died of AIDS, the former, therefore, does not infer the latter. Antibiotics even heavily repeated, are not the cause of AIDS. There is only ONE thing which seperates those suffering from the disease from those who are not, and that is the HIV Retrovirus. Such things as antibiotics, as stated above, may play a part in the speed at which HIV infection develops into full blown AIDS, but they are not the cause.

Also:
'The thing that always struck me as significant was the fact that NEVER was the AIDS virus shown to be present in the body of an AIDS victim. It was only pointed out that –this immune system is broken down and that means that the AIDS virus was here !.'
The reason for this is there was actually no way, at the time of measuring viral load, so obviously AT THAT TIME, an HIV+ result simply showed nothing more than the fact the patients had at some point been exposed to the virus, and developed anti-bodies, and this was the whole basis of the now completely defunct 'HIV does not cause AIDS' theory. The technology simply did not exist back then. TODAY however, we CAN measure the virus (or rather virus particles, or virions), which of course is conclusive proof that the virus is actually still present in the body, and reproducing. It has also been pretty conclusively shown that those who have a higher viral load, are more at risk of becoming ill.

So, in closing, while the whole 'alternative theroy' thing was both necessary and welcome at the beggining of the disease, which I myself very much bought into, advances in the field have simply disproved all these theories, and it is on TODAYS evidence which we must base our opinions and models of disease, not those of 20 years ago.
