General, the proposed debate of dr_cottrell with Nick Petosky
@ pizzapicklespur
would be very interesting. Thanks for pointing this out.

Nick has done a deep-dive into the "special Virus Cancer Program"... and educated me on the frankenstein things they were up to in the 60's and 70's... and then his analysis on HIV is second-to-none - he's gone through all the SIV research in Belgian Congo and made conclusions that are astounding .. due to this 40-year quest with HIV he has a LOT of experience of Fauci, too...


some highlights from Nick's presentations that I remember were:
"Type C" viruses.
CANCER.
