All kinds of diseases started coming into the AIDS family faster than anyone should have been comfortable with, really. To go from two or three to 30 in a few years and, it's got to be financial. Things don't happen that fast in science. You don't suddenly notice that one new organism is causing every problem. I mean it was a bizarre thing that happened, it really was. It didn't really have any precedent in terms of medicine before that unless perhaps you can think of the possession by the devil. Possession by the devil, right, or anything you do just got to do with that, right? So it makes it easier for you to get tuberculosis, and it makes it easier for you to get uterine cancer. It makes it easier for you, and so all those things can now be called AIDS. Now why would anybody do that and why would any reasonable doctors start lumping together various symptoms into one pile and say all this is caused by HIV?
1:12. [Robert Da Prato] Dr. Kary Mullis who invented the PCR in 83 and got the Nobel Prize in 1993 gives us a little story that he was hired to do The polymerase chain reaction, PCR, for an HIV project for a private company and he wrote as the first sentence of his paper, "HIV is the probable cause of AIDS." And he said he turned to a virologist and said, what's the reference for that? And the virologist said you don't need it. Well, Mullis is smart enough to know, now, of course, something new as this you would always have a series of original papers established unequivocally that this was the cause of AIDS.
1:47. Then and only then I started looking into it I looked up a bunch of papers in science that Bob Gallo I knew about him and what he'd written and I figured gallon must have been the one who figured it out because he's the name I've heard associated with it I looked at his papers and I didn't find anything in there that actually showed me that there was a fact now in science called, "HIV is the cause of AIDS," or even "the probable cause of AIDS," which is all I would have expected "the probable cause of AIDS." "Highly probable," because they were attacking the whole problem by then as though it were certainly the cause. So I'd expected it to be "highly probable," but I couldn't find anything that said it was "remotely probable" even. It was "possible," but it wasn't "probable." And so therefore it wasn't even close to what you'd call a fact.
