The number of peer reviewed academic studies cited here is substantial. And the conclusions reached by careful scientific analysis appears to be overwhelming.
"In a Canadian cohort, investigators followed 715 homosexual men for a median of 8.6 years. Every case of AIDS in this cohort occurred in individuals who were HIV-seropositive. No AIDS-defining illnesses occurred in men who remained negative for HIV antibodies, despite the fact that these individuals had appreciable patterns of illicit drug use and receptive anal intercourse (Schechter et al. Lancet 1993;341:658)."
I urge everyone to read this page very very carefully before commenting casually on this issue. Harry, I especially invite you to read it and see if it changes your opinion that people are "censoring" you.

There is now a mountain of evidence that HIV is the necessary, though not always sufficient, cause of AIDS.
Again, the standard for "truth" in science is to publish research in scholarly scientific journal with peer review. Part of the peer review process is to establish whether the research results have been replicated by others. After all isn't that what we are after here - the "truth". Here are picture of the viruses that cause Polio, the Common Cold, and Herpes, http://www.usablemakeover.com/virus_pictures.html
So Stirling please cite one study published in a scholarly scientific journal with peer review that states "HIV Is The Probable Cause of AIDS". Is it cited on Wikipedia for me to read? If not where can I find it? At the same time give me one reference to a electron microscopic picture of HIV.
