Ben Goldacre and His AIDS Theory

I for one, am glad that Ben Goldacre has come out with a new theory about the AIDS epidemic: “Homeopaths Cause AIDS!”.

I’m glad because his shrill rhetoric has gotten to the stage of hysteria such that pragmatic and good people will now see it for what it is: baaaad science cult hysteria.

Of course everyone knows what really caused the AIDS epidemic- the pharmaceutical industry!!!!

Check this horrific video of an interview with the former head of Research for Merck:

Of course, maybe, just maybe, a widdle biddy virus might be causing it. (I put this in the language that I think, but of course I can’t scientifically prove, that Ben Goldacre and his bad science cult members might understand).
