Are vaccinated people developing full blown AIDS?!

Did a top doctor just admit that vaccinated people are developing full blown AIDS?! Take a look at the viral claim, and find out what the facts really are!

 

Claim : Vaccinated people are developing full blown AIDS!

People are sharing an article (archive) by The People’s Voice (formerly NewsPunch), which claimed that a top doctor just admitted that vaccinated people are developing full blown AIDS!

Truth : Vaccinated people are not developing full blown AIDS!

This is yet another example of FAKE NEWS created / promoted by The People’s Voice and Peter McCullough, and here are the reasons why…

COVID-19 vaccines do not cause AIDS

This is silly, but let me just start by pointing out that there is no medical disease called VAIDS – Vaccine-Induced Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. It appears to be something made-up by anti-vaccination activists to scare people.

AIDS is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Nothing else causes AIDS. Certainly no vaccine, not even the COVID-19 vaccine, causes AIDS.

Robert Charles Gallo – one of the two scientists who independently discovered that the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was responsible for AIDS, said in response to the 2021 claim by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro that COVID-19 vaccines cause AIDS:

[I]t’s hard to believe anyone would claim that the covid-19 vaccine causes AIDS. We know what causes AIDS.

I don’t know what your president said. So I don’t want to be too critical. But it is obvious that neither the covid-19 vaccine nor any other vaccine causes AIDS.

HIV is different from SARS-CoV-2

Just to be clear, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a completely different virus from SARS-CoV-2 – the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

HIV viruses are single-stranded retroviruses from the Lentivirus genus, and are transmitted through sexual contact, or transfer of blood and bodily fluids.

SARS-CoV-2 is a single-stranded coronavirus from the Betacoronavirus genus, and is airborne, mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets and aerosols.

There is no conceivable way for COVID-19 vaccines, or even COVID-19 infections, to cause AIDS…. or to create a new form of AIDS. That’s utter nonsense.

Vaccine candidate gave false positive HIV results

It is odd that Peter McCullough should bring up the VAIDS claim, when it was debunked more than 3 years ago! This vaccine AIDS claim was based on news in 2020 that the Australian COVID-19 vaccine produced false positive HIV results.

In early 2020, the University of Queensland (UQ) and Australian biotech company CSL, worked on a COVID-19 vaccine based on UQ’s proprietary “molecular clamp” technology. The UQ molecular clamp basically used an 80 amino-acid fragment from a HIV virus protein to stabilise the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein.

While the Phase 1 trial results were promising, they also showed an unexpected problem – the HIV protein fragment was generating antibodies that were resulting in false positive HIV tests.

Vaccine candidate did not cause AIDS

To be clear – the UQ-CSL vaccine candidate did not infect anyone with HIV, or cause AIDS. The vaccine was merely causing HIV tests to return false positive results, as UQ explained:

There is no possibility the vaccine causes infection, and routine follow up tests confirmed there is no HIV virus present.

Why would anyone continue to claim that COVID-19 vaccines cause full blown AIDS???

Vaccine candidate did not cause immunodeficiency

The Australian COVID-19 vaccine candidate also did not cause immunodeficiency, as claimed.

In fact, the UQ-CSL team continued its Phase 1 clinical trial, as the false positive HIV results did not present any health risk to the participants.

The Phase 1 trial will continue, where further analysis of the data will show how long the antibodies persist, with studies so far showing that levels are already falling. The University of Queensland plans to submit the full data for peer review publication.

Why would anyone claim that COVID-19 vaccines cause immunodeficiency??? Where is the evidence???

Australian vaccine candidate was abandoned

For the Australian vaccine candidate to move forward, there were two possible paths:

  • UQ and CSL could re-engineer their vaccine candidate, but that would take another year or so, or
  • HIV testing procedures would need to significantly changed.

After consulting the Australian government, CSL and UQ announced that they would not proceed to further develop their COVID-19 vaccine candidate on 11 December 2020.

… [f]ollowing consultation with the Australian Government, CSL will not progress the vaccine candidate to Phase 2/3 clinical trials.

With advice from experts, CSL and UQ have worked through the implications that this issue presents to rolling out the vaccine into broad populations. It is generally agreed that significant changes would need to be made to well-established HIV testing procedures in the healthcare setting to accommodate rollout of this vaccine. Therefore, CSL and the Australian  Government have agreed vaccine development will not proceed to Phase 2/3 trials.

In other words – the Australian COVID-19 vaccine that produced false positive HIV results was never approved for use. It did not receive any Emergency Use Authorisation. Heck, it did not even proceed to the Phase 2/3 clinical trials!

The People’s Voice is known for publishing fake news

The People’s Voice is the current name for NewsPunch, which possibly changed its name because its brand has been so thoroughly discredited after posting numerous shocking but fake stories.

Founded as Your News Wire in 2014, it was rebranded as NewsPunch in November 2018, before becoming The People’s Voice. A 2017 BuzzFeed report identified NewsPunch as the second-largest source of popular fake news on Facebook that year.

Its articles have been regularly debunked as fake news, so you should never share anything from NewsPunch / The People’s Voice.  Here are some of its fake stories that I fact checked earlier:
