This week host Iyapo Ngina will talk with Dr. Peter Duesberg, Professor of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at the University of California at Berkeley about HIV and AIDS. Dr. Duesberg was a member of the scientific and medical panel convened by the government in South Africa in 2000 to review the cause and treatment of AIDS.

Dr. Duesberg contends that the range of illnesses attributed to AIDS in Africa are not caused by a virus, but by the severe poverty, malnutrition and poisonous environmental conditions faced by the people. He says that these conditions are only worsened by the toxicity of commonly used AIDS drugs like AZT.
