		<description>Has anyone noticed that the Peoples Republic of China have imprisoned a man called Liu Xiaobo, from which he was presented a noble peace prize... So everyone knows that bad things are done to good people. Spread the word and help China gain some independence! Check up on Liu and make an effort to make the world a better place to live.

		<description>What about remedies that use Silver?  It&#039;s not really homeopathic and it&#039;s commonly used as an antibacterial medical instrument, like in catheters, etc and for the treatment of burns.  I heard that silver can be used to treat Malaria as well, can anyone confirm this?

		<description>We already know that malaria makes AIDS worse, not better. This is a really crazy idea.

		<description>for, aids there is no curable method. i know it because the virus of aids has capaability to mutate it very fast. so when we use any method to cure it the virus itself mutated and it cant longer identified by the virus. so,how you can say that you can cure it with malaria. i want to know from you what statergy you are taking to cure it and if you dont know then stop buckling.

		<description>Here in Australia, the Heimlich&#039;s been completely eliminated. If someone&#039;s choking, the first treatment response is back blows. If that doesn&#039;t remove the obstruction, proceed with chest thrusts.

		<description>Lois, the point you are missing is that experimenting on human beings, in particular those who have likely not been fully informed as to the experimential nature of the so-called &quot;treatment&quot; they are receiving is morally and ethically wrong--and if done here in the US, would likely be prosecuted as a crime.
Gads, what are you saying? That AIDS sufferers are going to die anyway so why not experiment on them? Or that folks in poverty-striken, Third World countries don&#039;t deserve the same protections as we do here?
Although, as I&#039;ve pointed out earlier, in a very real sense, when it came to the maneuver and drowning, human studies WERE conducted without the knowledge and consent of the participants.

		<description>So what if Dr. Anthony Fauci, arguably the world&#039;s leading AIDS expert, says Heimlich&#039;s theory is a disaster? Lois Raeihle - whoever she is - has now given her blessing. Let the infections proceed!

		<description>We are so quick to naysay any new Idea. We want proof, proof,proof. The idea that malaria would kill the AIDS virus doesn&#039;t seem so far fetched. What does it take to kill a virus? Perhaps heat. And the idea that injecting malaria into an AIDS patient might kill him. What will AIDS do?

		<description>The statement by Robert Cohen that &quot;Dr. Henry Heimlich&#039;s famous life-saving maneuver was criticized and ridiculed for many years by his peers and the American Red Cross&quot; is wrong on all counts.
Heimlich introduced his manuever in 1974. Two years later it was accepted by the Red Cross, astoundingly fast acceptance for a new medical idea. Heimlich&#039;s beef was that the Red Cross continued to teach backblows along with the Heimlich maneuver.
It was Heimlich&#039;s tactics and lack of scientific data which were widely criticized at the time by the Red Cross and other medical authorities. That was because he had little or no research to back up his claims, just anecdotal evidence.
Such criticism now appears to be even more richly deserved. For example, a Yale research study published in 1982 allegedly proved that backblows were dangerous and would drive a foreign body airway obstruction deeper into the airway - exactly what Heimlich had been claiming for years before.
A coincidence? Not exactly. Recent news articles state that Heimlich secretly funded the Yale study.
