"2. My wife's son needlessly died of AIDS after refusing our pleas to ignore his doctor's advice that his condition was caused by HIV virus, not his lifestyle. So he persevered with his lifestyle until his health completely failed and he died in St Vincent's hospital."
That guy is off his fucking rocker crazy.
Those numbers are made up bullshit. Just track down the supposed numbers for deaths from bedsores and his so called research is from
Xakellis, G.C., R. Frantz and A. Lewis, Cost of Pressure Ulcer Prevention in Long Term Care, JAGS, 43 - 5, May 1995.
Barczak, C.A., R.I. Barnett, E.J. Childs, L.M. Bosley, "Fourth National Pressure Ulcer Prevalence Survey", Advances in Wound Care, 10- 4, Jul/Aug 1997
Neither of these reports appears to support the conclusion of that many patients who died from bedsores.
These figures are staggering, well-known, and not just hearsay.
I am going to go ahead and call bullshit on that website and those nonsense numbers.
