The cause of AIDS

Medical Hypotheses
S R Erlander

Abstract

There is growing evidence that allogeneic cells, rather than viruses or bacteria are the cause of AIDS. It is proposed here that these allogeneic cells are sperm cells which induce the production of anti-sperm antibodies. Anal sex, genital ulcers and female circumcision allow sperm cells to be absorbed into the body and thus produce AIDS. Also these three factors plus the use of sperm contaminated blood transfusions can explain the high incidence of AIDS among African black women. It is concluded that the practice of anal sex (men and women recipients) is widespread in Africa and that knowledge of such practice is suppressed because of society pressures.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
