In the 1990 edition, Fumento predicted that the AIDS epidemic had peaked the year before, but the necessary epidemiological information was not yet compiled. He has updated statistics now to support his basic message: AIDS is not on the verge of wiping out civilization; it is a fatal viral disease that is running its course just like all viral diseases do. He explains how the HIV virus works, how the medical establishment and the media are creating the hysteria, what interests are behind the distortions (not all of them are bad people), and how terror about a disaster that will not happen is draining resources from the people who really need them. He includes a whole chapter on Africa. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
