internationalman:You don't need to believe if its real. Just come to North East and experiment it yourself. I'm currently in North East Nigeria and I can tell you its real by the population of patients on ARVs in the hospital where I am currently. |

I see why HIV is still spreading and will kill many Africans. Sad this is coming from ladies. One would think with the awareness and education we have, HIV should be a past thing. Can you imagine people thinking some Americans wants to wipe them out.... what a silly mentality. we need to get really intelligent as a nation |

MrDickman:lol,the way u d reason the make me laugh but anyway na u get ur body. the test tube is not 100% accurate that y u have to go for confirmatry test when ur result comes out positive. to further explain the test tube look for antibody so it maybe possible ur friends body produce antibody for another sickness thereby tricking the test tube, confirmary test would have given him the real result |

MrDickman:Ignorance is a disease, some people still debate this and doubt the existence of the virus, this how some people also believe the earth is flat, if you want proof, go to hospitals where they have HIV/AIDs patients for proof or better still sleep with someone with HIV and see the result. I've a family friend that's HIV positive she got it from her wayward husband, so if you want HIV/AIDs proof its very easy, you can request for a HIV blood transfusion to transfer it in your body. 2 Likes 1 Share |

internationalman:go to ART centres and see the number is persons attending health talks and taking ARVs. How do you know the number of persons infected? Or is it now obvious like Chicken Pox? One had better try abstinence or try get infected to know whether it is false or fact. |

[quote author=LaaJiblik post=62235337][/quote] Bros, you try, your #2 is wrong. You might have sex with an infected person again and again and not get infected. Those that are high risk are the gay community. |

internationalman:Firstly, I will like to add that HIV transmission is not strictly related to only sex. I cannot tell how many persons practise it, but when one person takes the resolve to live responsibly, and another and another, it will just keep spreading. It is just like the case of Who is a virgin or not? You don't expect a sane human to come out to announce that he or she is, but they exist. My point is, be responsible to yourself. Do the right thing whether or not anyone is watching or ready to appraise you. |

sekem:That is why SA has the highest rate of hiv in the world. When you look at stats, the rate is higher in African country because a lot of people in Africa do not believe that the virus exist; hence, it's spreading like wild fire. |
Re: HIV/AIDS Conspiracy Theories: Do You Believe The Virus Is Real? by chayoski: 1:55am On Nov 10, 2017 |
internationalman:You will be amazed by the statistics of people living with HIV. Try and check it out. That is excluding those that re still unaware of their positive status and those who are, but have decided to hide it for whatever their reasons are. HIV like is said, is not a death sentence. It kills just as someone can just slip, fall and die. Let me answer the op's question. HIV is real and if it is not managed properly, it can lead to AIDS. |

Real or not, there is also the risk of contracting other diseases like gono and staph, however, i have had sex with a number of ladies without using any protection and i havent tested positive to the virus or any other disease, the major reason i use protection is to avoid unwanted pregnancy not much for the fear of HIV. |

internationalman:But fact is only about 10% of the population has been tested. And many of those only happened due to maternity/pregnancy issue. From the 10% tested, the rate is fairly high. So until we have tested more, we cannot dismiss it either way. Also in a country with a low life expectancy like 9ja (52 years), most infected people will die of other causes before they can even be diagnosed with HIV. Because in many people, it can take up to 20 years for AIDS symptoms to show markedly. A tiny portion of people do not contract HIV through sex the very first time sleeping with an HIV infected person. Like circumcised men without open wound in their manliness might just get away with it once or twice. Not that men should rely on such "rare luck" to avoid catching AIDS. An extremely tiny number of people actually have innate resistance to certain strains of HIV virus that use CCR5 receptor to enter and infect cell. People with a mutation of the gene (Delta 32 mutation) that codes for CCR5 receptor (call it docking point/entry point) will usually not catch the strain that uses that receptor. But might catch HIV strains that uses another entry point. Around 10% of Caucasians have that resistant gene but under 1% of mankind as a whole. It was thought that taking bone marrow from a resistant person to give an HIV patient could cure him. But it is now most likely that it is the complication effect of the graft/transplant that kills the the HIV in the system. Not the Delta 32 gene effect from the donated bone marrow/stem cell.. 1 Like 1 Share |

I lost my both parents to the dreaded virus and I have seen it render the body useless over time while leaving you as a skeletal specimen. Know your status and "NEVER" engage in unprotected sex if you are not certain of the persons status. 1 Like 1 Share |

Organs:The test they did is not a confirmatory test so they wont win if they sue the hospital. The result will likely read: SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION. So there is room for false positive result. But to the main topic.. HIV IS SO REAL THAT I AM SO SCARED NOWADAYS . We see it practically daily now. |

benifeanyi00556: First of, one of the guys or both might have concealed the truth. Did you see the test results of the two people? I can tell you authoritatively that many men & women are positive and know it but have refused to tell their husband/wife. Women are even more scared of been thrown out. On the other hand, just under 1% of all people & 10% of Europeans have a genetic resistance to some strains of HIV virus. Yes, men are just slightly less at risk. Slightly less surface for entry compared to the larger female area of exposure. 1 Like |

Uniquejames: It is just genetics, like lottery. Maybe some of their original ancestors got infected by a virus similar to HIV. So over millenia, some of the population gradually developed resistance by deleting the gene. Perhaps many were wiped out by it and some survived. But on the other hand we blacks ought to have been at the forefront of HIV research, but we are not. We wait for the West to do all the work. He who does the job controls the narrative. We often complain about the narrative. Another case is sickle cell. No doubt, West Africans and people of WA descent are most affected. Though other Africans also suffer from it. It is not all conspiracy. Remember too that whatever illness one has, poor nutrition, poor healthcare system and poverty make it worse. These factors affect us more too. And they are things that we ought to be able to change too. 4 Likes 1 Share |

HIV-1most commonly uses the chemokine receptors CCR5 and/orCXCR4 asco-receptors to enter target immunological cells.Some people's CCR5 have been mutated and no matter how exposed they are to an HIV type 1 strain , they will never contact it. Also , a positive person with a low viral load and high CD4 will not transmit it easily..(there are many discordant couples).. As per the inconsistent result,i guess only one determine kit was used(this can give incorrect result especially if the person is immune suppressed already)...The standard practise is to use at least 2 kits before confirming a +ve status.Heck, you could even use a third kit! HIV is real, so also is AIDS.. 1 Like 2 Shares |
