The AIDS Denialists
David Razenik is a big figure in the world of folks who don't believe HIV is real or that it doesn't lead to AIDS. One of his big ideas is that antiretroviral drugs are actually the cause of the condition and that the real cure is some super cool unregulated vitamins he sells. He was working for a company that sold the vitamins and the capacity of running fraudulent clinical trials, which the South African government would later declare illegal. Also as recently as 2006, it was reported that he advised people that HIV quote cannot be transmitted between heterosexuals.
