Two Answers to HIV-AIDS skeptics

One notorious genetics professor from Berkeley, Peter Duesberg, frequently travels the campus circuit and preaches his message to college kids (the most sexually active segment of society, by the way): AIDS is not an infectious disease. He also wrote a couple of books and articles about this theory.

The internet, always eager to embrace fringe elements and lunatics of all types, has galvanized a group of vocal Duesberg followers. They can be seen in action on newsgroups such as misc.health.aids , various mailing lists, and web sites such as AIDS Authority. Here are two answers to these skeptics:

The National Institutes of Health distributed a paper titled Relationship between HIV and AIDS on the Internet. It contains the mainstream scientific evidence for a causative role of HIV in AIDS, complete with all relevant references. I converted it to HTML and added a glossary and some remarks.
The skeptics, when telling sexually active persons that AIDS is not sexually transmitted, gamble with other people's lives. It would be much more ethical to gamble with their own money instead. At the same time, they could collect evidence supporting their claims. The key is to offer a life insurance policy for certain HIV infected people and combine it with a scientific study. If they're right, they will strike it rich; if they're wrong, they will end up bankrupt.

Here is how to contact the skeptics:

And here are some other rebuttals of the skeptics' position:

The AIDS Heresies, an article written for the magazine Skeptic. Much more readable and less scientific than the NIH paper above.
Does HIV cause AIDS? A usenet article focusing on ICL ("AIDS without HIV").
Gangbang's HIV/AIDS information page, containing lots of hard facts about the virus.
