XTRA: Cartoonist R. Crumb Rethinks ‘AIDS,’ Rethinks Everything – with David Crowe on ‘The Infectious Myth’
R. Crumb is the best-known “underground” American cartoonist of the late 1960s and early 1970s. He created, among others, ZAP Comix, Fritz the Cat, Mr. Natural and Keep on Truckin’. Most people, however, may not know that he is a long-time ‘AIDS’ rethinker, or dissident, and has been since meeting former “How Positive Are You” co-host Christine Maggiore.
In late October 2016, he joined current HPAY co-host David Crowe for a discussion of pretty much everything on David’s “The Infectious Myth” Internet radio show. Somewhere in there are Crumb’s personal impressions of the early history of AIDS. Sex, censorship and racism also come up. Don’t take our word for it; listen for yourself HERE.
Be warned that this interview contains explicit language. You’re not afraid of a little of that, are you? Continue reading »

On June 25, 2016, Bobby Russell, a legal plaintiff claiming a false-positive “HIV test,” received four or five threatening calls to his mobile phone. He says that the caller(s), while not explicitly threatening to kill him, made reference to “what you are doing.”
“How Positive Are You” co-host Elizabeth (Beth) Ely thought it best to report this event, to help ensure Bobby’s safety. Continue reading »

Comment (0)NEWS UPDATE: Flowers After the Date Rape? Clinton Tries to ‘Help’ Haiti While Hurricane Rages and Haitians Protest Earthquake Ripoff
October 7, 2016–The versatile emotional-blackmail model of AIDS relief has been trotted out again to exploit another kind of tragedy. Former U.S. President Bill Clinton this past Tuesday exhorted his Twitter followers to send money to unspecified “Members of the Clinton Foundation Community” to “help in Haiti” — even as Haitians were organizing rallies against the Foundation’s previous effort there. (The tweet is viewable HERE.)
Adding urgency to the appeal, the tweet featured a disaster-porn satellite photo of Hurricane Matthew flushing the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere down the familiar toilet-swirl of a Caribbean storm.
Some of those Twitter followers were not impressed with the Foundation’s record of “help.” Continue reading »
Comment (0)NEWS UPDATE: Actor Ed Asner to Present Nicole Zwiren’s ‘Behind the Fear’ at Awareness Film Festival in Los Angeles; Screenings Also at Commffest Toronto and WIFF Los Angeles
October 3, 2016–Congratulations to Filmmaker Nicole Zwiren! “How Positive Are You” featured her in Episode 85. Nicole writes:
My documentary Behind the Fear: The Hidden Story of HIV is being screened in Los Angeles and Toronto [in] October 2016. I would love for all of you to attend if you’re available. My producer, Esther Ancrum, and I will be doing Q&As after each screening. . . .
XTRA: “‘Watered-Down’ AIDS Drugs Story Hides the Clinton Foundation’s Worse Crimes Against Humanity,” at ‘The Truth Barrier’
September 29, 2016–In a story published HERE today in “The Truth Barrier,” “How Positive Are You” co-host Elizabeth Ely responds to the already-established, but false, meme of “watered-down drugs.” This is a rare glimpse behind the “emotional blackmail” of AIDS propaganda and into the Clinton Foundation’s “partnerships” in the Third World.
It’s “not a pretty thing when you look into it much.” So wrote Joseph Conrad about the conquest of colonial Africa, nearly 100 years ago. (Please help fund “The Truth Barrier’s” journalism of this type HERE.)

Comment (0)XTRA: Charles Ortel Busts More Clinton Pretenses, Such as Generic Drugs, on ‘The Infectious Myth’
September 13, 2016–Wait for it . . . about halfway through . . . Charles Ortel, who is not an AIDS dissident, nonetheless tells “How Positive Are You” co-host David Crowe that the Clinton Foundation likely runs a mere drug-dumping operation in poor countries, with no evidence of medical followup and infrastructure.
No surprise here. The Atlantic unknowingly revealed the dismal, panic-creating mission of the Foundation in its “This Is Not Charity” article of October 2007: “[T]he foundation was offering a business proposition to generic drug companies: If we get you the demand, can you get us the supply?”

Comments (3)NEWS UPDATE: We’ve Seen This Movie Before – September 10 Protest in London Planned as Portobello Nixes ‘Positive Hell’ Screening
September 8, 2016–A veteran BBC journalist and medical documentary filmmaker is calling for protests this Saturday night in London after BuzzFeed News reported yesterday that the Portobello Film Festival pulled this weekend’s screening of her film “Positive Hell.” This award-winning documentary tells the stories of five long-term survivors of an “HIV-positive” diagnosis living in Spain.
Producer and narrator Joan Shenton asks the protesters to meet outside the film festival at 8:30 p.m., half an hour before the original screening time, at the The KPH, 139 Ladbroke Grove, London. Continue reading »
Comments (2)NEWS UPDATE: Ortel Report on Clinton-Related Charities Blasts Legal and Financial Frauds Behind ‘AIDS’ Work Worldwide
September 7, 2016–The Clinton Foundation-related charities claim to “fight AIDS” around the world, among other good works, but a former New York investment banker calls their record “a case study in international charity fraud of mammoth proportions.” Charles K. Ortel published yesterday the results of his 18-month look into the legal and financial fraud of the Clinton Foundation-related charities as they operate mostly in developing countries around the world. (You can read it HERE.)
Ortel was our guest on Episode 109 of “How Positive Are You” in April. Continue reading »
Comments (2)NEWS UPDATE: Bill Clinton Resigns, or Intends to, from Board of ‘AIDS’-Fighting ‘Clinton Global Initiative’ as Corruption Concerns Grow
August 19, 2016–Variety reported yesterday that former U.S. president Bill Clinton “is resigning from the board” of the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI), a purported worldwide AIDS-fighting organization under the Clinton Foundation. However, the Huffington Post implied that he would resign only if his wife, Hillary Clinton, is elected to the U.S. presidency in November.
Both stories emphasize the apparent conflict of interest as the U.S. election nears (see the Boston Globe’s sudden opinion that the “Clinton Foundation should stop accepting funds”). But might Ortel’s almost-daily media appearances exposing the organization’s corrupt practices have prompted Bill’s decision? Continue reading »
Comments (3)Episode 110: Sex and the Single Swede – Celia Farber Considers Julian Assange’s Refusal of an ‘HIV Test’
Episode 110: Sex and the Single Swede - Celia Farber Considers Julian Assange's Refusal of an 'HIV Test' [ 1 h 16 min 48 s | 35.16 MB ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (747)In August 2010, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange refused to take an “HIV test” in Sweden at the request of two young women with whom he had had consensual sex. To avoid extradition to Sweden to face accusations under that country’s “expansive,” and expanding, rape law, Assange has been effectively imprisoned for the past four years in the Ecuadorian embassy in London.
“Only in the shadow of the 1980s HIV/AIDS mushroom cloud, could a broken condom be met with such hysteria, and morph into a criminal drama, involving several governments and millions of dollars,” wrote former “How Positive Are You” co-host Celia Farber. Close to the fourth anniversary of Assange’s exile, Elizabeth Ely joins Celia in her Manhattan kitchen for tea and discussion of her February 2016 New York Observer article on the sexual politics of this unusual case.

Comment (0)XTRA: Dr. Stefan Lanka Studied Virology, Only to Conclude that Viruses Don’t Exist
Don’t call Dr. Stefan Lanka a virologist; he no longer believes that viruses even exist. On April 12, “How Positive Are You” co-host David Crowe interviewed this iconoclastic German scientist on “The Infectious Myth” at the Progressive Radio Network (PRN). Listen HERE.
HPAY last visited the issue in December 2013, in its controversial Episode 74 with Dawn Lester and David Parker of the U.K.’s “Nature of Reality” group. We’re not sure where we stand on it, but the debate should continue.
Comment (0)Episode 109: It Takes a Pillage – Charles Ortel Tracks the Missing Clinton Foundation Funds, Audits and ‘AIDS’ Missions
The Clinton Health Access Initiative advertises its efforts to “help save the lives of millions of people living with HIV/AIDS in the developing world by dramatically scaling up antiretroviral treatment.” This is just one of many large initiatives of the Clinton Foundation. What would that even mean, “dramatically scaling up”?
Strangely enough, the Foundation never received a charter for that purpose. It was established solely to preserve Bill Clinton’s presidential legacy – mainly, by supporting the Clinton presidential library. In his book Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World, Clinton talks about attending the 2002 Barcelona AIDS conference, where Nelson Mandela and other world leaders asked him to combat AIDS. And yet as Ortel points out, the Foundation’s filings for 2002 do not reflect this mission change.
This is just one of many concerns we discuss in this Episode, including what might be happening to those hapless “HIV/AIDS” patients in rural areas of the Third World. Continue reading »
Comments (5)NEWS UPDATE: London Film Fest Drops AIDS Doc ‘Positive Hell,’ as ‘Vaxxed’ Backlash Hits Houston, L.A. Screenings Sell Out, NYC Gets Second Week
April 10, 2016–Telling people not to see an alarming public-health documentary may not be the best strategy to kill it. Perhaps emboldened by recent American censorships of Vaxxed: From Coverup to Catastrophe, the London International Film Festival has pulled AIDS documentary Positive Hell, according to veteran journalist, author and filmmaker Joan Shenton. (We reported on the film in Episodes 72 and 96, and posted a link to a discussion on “The Progressive Film Hour.“) The festival organizer admitted he acted under pressure from LGBT student groups at the university where he teaches.
UPDATE, April 11, 2016–DANGEROUS, ILLICIT, NAUGHTY, FREE viewing: Watch Positive Hell (28 minutes) anyway. (No, don’t. Please, you’ll feel better if you don’t. . . . it’ll hurt others’ feelings . . . don’t even think about it . . . you’re not thinking about it, are you? Mind Police! Open up!) UPDATE, September 8, 2016–It happened again. Another London film festival pulled Positive Hell from its lineup, this time the Portobello. Read our update HERE and “How Positive Are You” co-host Elizabeth Ely’s essay at “The Truth Barrier,” and watch Shenton’s passionate defense of her film on “London Live” HERE.
Meanwhile, former “How Positive Are You” co-host Celia Farber is posting fascinating daily updates on the rapidly failing attempt to censor Vaxxed, so click on over to The Truth Barrier. UPDATE, April 11, 2016–Shenton gets her day in the media at “The Truth Barrier,” and she is devastating to this pretense of an “independent” film festival. How, indeed, do LGBT “activists” benefit from silencing positive stories of HIV survival? (Answer: They collect money.)

XTRA: ‘Vaxxed’ Producer Del Bigtree Defends Film and Drs. Wakefield and Thompson – A ‘MUST WATCH’ Posted by ‘Natural News’!
What kind of a “science” needs to bully dissenting scientists, smear reputations, misrepresent the content of films, books and articles, and actually warn people not to see, read or listen to these points of view? Unnamed “scientific experts” and their media lapdogs have done exactly these things to censor an important documentary film on vaccine safety, slated to screen at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in New York, Vaxxed: From Coverup to Catastrophe.
The pulling of the film occurred after film producer Del Bigtree gave ABC News THIS FULL 10-MINUTE INTERVIEW, as posted by Mike Adams at ‘Natural News,’ but the network used a mere 5 seconds in its report.
Comment (1)XTRA: ‘Vaxxed’ Axed – Liam Scheff Compares Robert De Niro’s Nix of Vaccination Documentary to Uproar Over 2009 AIDS Film
Monday, March 28, 2016 – How far will drug companies and U.S. government-funded scientists go to stop criticism of vaccines? Has a leading American actor been threatened?
On Sunday, actor and Tribeca Film Festival founder Robert De Niro removed Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s documentary film Vaxxed: From Coverup to Catastrophe from this year’s official selections. Only one day earlier, De Niro had bravely defended the film’s inclusion without specifically endorsing its views.
In a 10-minute video available on YouTube, investigative reporter Liam Scheff draws a parallel between the censorship of this film about vaccinations and autism and how alternative views of “AIDS” are also suppressed. (He has posted some valuable links there as well.) Continue reading »
Comments (2)Episode 108: Waking Up to the Truth, with New AIDS Rethinker George Borrelli
When confronted with new facts, why do we take so long to change our minds? George Borrelli never imagined a different view of “AIDS” science existed until he stumbled on it while researching alternative cancer theories and treatments.
“This really rocked a belief that I thought was so solid that it could not possibly be wrong,” says the retired engineer. “It was such a fundamental belief. I really didn’t want to accept the possibility that what everyone is saying could possibly be false.” Continue reading »
Comment (0)XTRA: Reports on Latest Scary ‘Epidemic’ Promote ‘Zika Virus’; Jim West Investigates on ‘The Infectious Myth’
This time, the scary outbreak-of-the-year may well be a real condition. Doctors in Brazil have noticed a dramatic increase, since August-September 2015, in “pinhead babies” – infants born with shrunken heads and other brain damage, a tragic condition called microcephaly. But is a virus really causing the outbreak?
In this episode of “The Infectious Myth” Internet radio show, Rethinking AIDS president and “How Positive Are You” co-host David Crowe applies experience honed in debunking the HIV theory of AIDS to consider the “Zika” panic. With New York independent researcher Jim West, he looks at the research connecting this virus to microcephaly. LISTEN HERE. Continue reading »
Comment (0)Episode 107: Alistair Mackinnon Overcame ‘Hepatitis C’ by Healing His Liver
Hepatitis C is yet another disease based on tests for antibodies and genetic material — not actual virus. Alistair Mackinnon survived the nightmare of toxic interferon and Ribavirin treatments. He now shares with “How Positive Are You” co-hosts David Crowe and Elizabeth Ely his journey of healing his liver naturally.
CORRECTION, March 25, 2016: The original introductory portion of this Episode was confusing and contradictory as to AIDS dissidents’ view of “hepatitis C” testing and whether liver problems should be treated. Our position is that, even though we warn against believing “HCV” tests, we do not advise anyone to ignore signs of liver toxicity, and we provide here a natural alternative for treating the liver. This is potentially life-saving information, and we regret any misunderstanding. We have revised the introduction today, to clarify this. Continue reading »
