Highly contagious mystery virus with AIDS-like symptoms quickly spreading throughout China

Wednesday, May 04, 2011 by: Jonathan Benson, staff writer

(NaturalNews) A new mystery virus with symptoms similar to those of AIDS and HIV is turning up all over China, according to a recent report in The Epoch Times. Patients with the highly transmissible disease are experiencing dramatic weight loss, night sweats, numb limbs, severe body aches, joint problems, severe vomiting, and the obvious decrease in white blood cell count and subsequent deterioration of the immune system.

A translated report from the Chinese news source New Express Daily explains that people who contract the new AIDS-like virus -- which spreads through any bodily fluid, including saliva and sweat, by the way -- experience nearly all the same symptoms as AIDS patients do, but routinely test negative for the disease. And experts are allegedly unable to authoritatively identify the disease, or the source from which it came.

A reporter from New Express Daily recently interviewed 30 different patients with the disease, most of which were believed to have contracted it through sexual contact. But several of them contracted it from other sources, including one via a blood transfusion from a relative, and another from a friend at a casual house gathering. And their accounts are chilling.

"I thought it was just a cold at the time, so I still participated in all kinds of gatherings," explained a retired army officer with the disease to The Epoch Times. "Consequently, over 100 of my comrades in the army, relatives and friends were infected by me."

Reports say that the Chinese Health Ministry has ordered epidemiological studies in six provinces with high numbers of infected patients, including in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Hunan, Jiangsu, and Guangdong. To date, though, there have been no conclusive discoveries made concerning the cause or source of the disease.

This reminded me of this passage from the SOTT article on comets and viruses:

According to the late Sir Fred Hoyle and Chandra Wickramasinghe of the University of Wales at Cardiff, viruses can be distributed throughout space by dust in the debris stream of comets. Then as Earth passes though the stream, the dust and viruses load our atmosphere, where they can stay suspended for years until gravity pulls them down. They compare numerous plagues throughout our history which coincide with cometary bodies in our skies. These researchers are certain that germs causing plagues and epidemics come from space.

In a letter to Lancet [1],Wickramasinghe explains that a small amount of a virus introduced into the stratosphere could make a first tentative fallout east of the great mountain range of the Himalayas, where the stratosphere is thinnest, followed by sporadic deposits in neighboring areas. Could this explain why new strains of the influenza virus that are capable of engendering epidemics, and which are caused by radical genetic mutations, usually originate in Asia?

It was reported in sott last month here is the link;http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/index2.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=53864&pop=1&page=0&Itemid=1

Those who suffer from it call them self HIV negative because many taught that they had Aids but all had negative result.

Lin said he went to every major hospital in Shanghai, but could not get a definite diagnosis. He has taken the HIV test eight times, and each time the test turned out negative.

Then he found an Internet blog called "The Negative Group," which he learned stands for "HIV negative." He realized that writing on this blog were all people like himself, with the same kinds of symptoms, desperate to find a cure.

Yes, it's always in the back of my mind as well this connection, today there was this article on a deadly virus in South Korea; http://joongangdaily.joins.com/article/view.asp?aid=2936045. They haven't identify it yet so I won't say it is new but to quote them, it is a very mysterious virus.

The 14 day incubation period is troubling; people could easily be traveling during that time, and I wonder if they are contagious during the period between infection and when the symptoms arise? I hope the Chinese health officials are as scrupulous with this new illness as they were with the SARS. I think they prevented a worldwide epidemic with that one.

I guess this is a kick in the rear to keep moving with the dietary changes! And to find some way to make money to afford said changes and stop leaching off my mum and dad... :(

I remember being told by a doctor that the most contagious form of a virus is just prior to when its symptoms manifest.
