HEALTH VIEWS — COLUMNS

Publisher’s Note
Dear Red Flags Members and Friends:
Thank you to those members who have contacted me by phone or e-mail expressing your hope that Red Flags will soon return. I am heartened by both your calls and generous words. 
I have also received messages from many people who have only recently discovered Red Flags. They appreciate the site’s importance as a forum for alternative reporting on health and medicine and are requesting updates about when we will be up and running again.
This memo addresses the interests of both our current and future members. > >

Letter of the Week
“Regardless of how politics may try to dissuade or delude you, all you need to know is that my [chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome] is infectious. It is contagious. And it is spreading, unleashed, in the world's population. I am not afraid to say that I have AIDS without HIV — my second official clinical diagnosis. I am equally as unafraid of saying the most obvious thing about chronic fatigue syndrome: It sure does look like AIDS to me. We talk openly about preparing for an impending avian flu pandemic. Why not talk about the HIV-negative AIDS epidemic that already exists (and is spreading) amongst us?” > > >
