Re: Madhya Pradesh: Baba claims AIDS cure, Govt supports

[Guest guest]

I would strongly advise the MP Project director of AIDS Control

Society not to get into this racket without proper guidance from

NACO. There is no known cure for AIDS and anybody propagating such

cure is just cheating people.

Providing emotional support through religious teachings and yoga and

treating patients with medicines which allegedly 'cure' them are

totally different activities. While involvement of faith leaders in

prevention and awareness programmes is welcome, it should not lead to

encouraging quackery and magic remedy solutions to a disease which

till now has no known cure.
