The Politics of AIDS and Ozone.
by Thomas Levy,
MD from "Extraordinary Science", Jul-Sep 1994
Possibly one of the best therapies
ever discovered for AIDS, other infectious diseases, and
most degenerative, or chronic, illnesses (including cancer)
is oxygen therapy, especially in the form of properly used
ozone therapy. The main "drawbacks" in any form of ozone
therapy are its simplicity and its minimal cost. The medical
industry relies on therapies that are costly and require
substantial expertise in their administration. Anything that
comes along that appears clinically effective while remaining
inexpensive is viewed skeptically, at best. The systematic
and ongoing efforts at spreading disinformation and propaganda
seem to know no bounds. In the Federal Register of 2/13/76,
the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) asserted that "Ozone
is a toxic gas with no known medical uses."(1)
Stating ozone has no known
medical uses is nothing short of sheer lunacy. Ozone has been used successfully
on scores of diseases in Europe, especially Germany, for
over 50 years. Over 6,000 articles on the medical usage's
of ozone are in the world literature. Nearly every disease
process responds favorably to any therapy that effectively
increases cellular oxygen content. Furthermore, the safety
profile of proper ozone administration is virtually unparalleled.
I had the opportunity to witness multiple intravenous ozone
treatments in the office of Dr. Horst Kief in West Germany.
It is a very simple, very safe procedure. In a survey of
German ozone therapists, 5,579,238 ozone treatments on 384,775
patients demonstrated a side effect rate of only 0.0007%,
and the side effects were uniformly minor and not even remotely
life-threatening. On the other hand, over a million patients
are hospitalized annually in the US. due to side effects
of prescription medication, and over 100,000 of such individuals
die from such drug usage. If one person in the U.S. dies
even indirectly from the usage of a vitamin product or an
herbal concoction, the FDA quickly moves to outlaw accessibility
to such a product, but they remain strangely blinded to the
carnage wrought annually by our pharmaceutical industry.
Dr. Hans Nieper, an ozone-using doctor in Hanover, Germany,
reports that in his medical practice on colon cancer he sees
an interesting assemblage of American VIP's:
You wouldn't
believe how many officials or relatives or acquaintances
of FDA officials come to see me as patients in Hanover.
You wouldn't believe directors of the American Medical
Association, or American Cancer Association, or the presidents
of orthodox cancer institutes. That's the fact. (2)
Very,
very gradually mainstream American researchers are "testing
the ozone waters." In 1991, a main journal for the American
Society of Hematology, Blood, published an article demonstrating
that ozone treatment inactivated human retroviruses (including
HIV) in human body fluids and blood product preparations.
The researchers concluded that:
"Ozone
has potent anti-HIV-1 activity in cell culture media
and factor VIII preparations. Although the exact mechanism
by which ozone mediates its effect remains unclear at
this time, it is readily apparent that ozone may be of
use in rendering factor VIII and possibly other blood
products, both proteinaceous and cellular, free of HIV-1
and other infectious agents."(3)
Ed
McCabe, an independent investigative journalist, has probably
done more that anyone else in promoting the many wonders
of ozone therapy. Undoubtedly, not being a physician has
significantly hampered his effectiveness in educating the
public and especially the health professionals. Scientists
are especially notorious for rejecting any concept that
does not arise from one of their own. Mr. McCabe, who authored
an excellent book entitled Oxygen Therapies: A New Way
of Approaching Disease, has made additional efforts to
reach our political power brokers with the news on ozone.
In 1992, he arranged a meeting of Iowa Congressman Bedell
and Senator Tom Harkin with two doctors who had each converted
an HIV-positive patient to HIV-negative status with ozone
therapy.
To
their credit, these politicians were very impressed, and
Senator Harkin then arranged a subsequent meeting with
Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Moskowitz of the National Institute
of Health (NIH). About 30 people, including other doctors
and legislative aides, were in attendance. Extensive documentation
was presented by the physicians on two of their own cases
of advanced clinical AIDS that had shown complete clinical
resolution of the disease, as well as normalization of
the appropriate laboratory test, including Western Blot/Elisa
(a check on HIV antibody) and PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction,
testing more directly for the presence of actual virus).
The official responses made to Mr. McCabe and his associates
included the following:
We
see no reason to pursue this.
Referring
to the recovered patients, it was added:
They
are obviously so healthy that they must not have had
the disease.
It
was finally concluded with:
We
won't look at this treatment unless you have the patients
PCR tested twice before treatment proving the presence
of the HIV virus, stored blood from when they were positive,
two PCR tests during treatment, and two PCR tests after
ozone treatment proving the absence of the virus. (4)
Of
course, no financial support was offered from the mammoth
NIH research budget to facilitate the additional suggested
work. Such "follow-up" research projects are common ploys
to both delay acceptance and implementation of any conclusions
made and to eventually bankrupt the finances of the renegade
researchers.
Also,
for those who may be wondering how to receive ozone therapy,
it must be clearly stated that such a therapy is still
unapproved in the U.S., and doctors who persist in using
it anyway have uniformly suffered sever consequences, including
bogus arrests, false imprisonment's, loss of licensees
to practice medicine, and numerous other forms of suppression
and harassment from the multiple agencies of the government
that magically transform into modern-day Gestapo's whenever
needed.
Selected
doctors have had their non-mainstream medical offices raided
in SWAT team style, with guns and rifles drawn on them
and their employees, while the offices are ransacked and
records are taken. Commonly, controversial equipment is
also destroyed on the spot or "permanently confiscated." With
the recent passage of NAFTA (North America Free Trade Agreement),
the Mexican government has now allowed similar U.S. agency
commando raid tactics on alternative medical facilities
on Mexican soil. A motivated patient will likely have to
completely abandon North America (Canada reasonably apes
the medical policies of the U.S.) in order to obtain treatments
that are beyond the domain of the guardians in Washington,
D.C.
