Is a common disinfectant a cure all? Or are we monkeys...

One wonders...

I have my general doubts about whether a pesticide would cure AIDS in the human body. But one never knows...bleach kills AIDS. It just so happens that in some quantity I am going to guess (this is based upon general distaste for the effects of bleach as I have no stats or experience) blech will kill you as well. And the quantity. Probably small. Why would people inject themselves with pesticide? Does no one remember Silent Spring?

Now, on a whole different level of cynicism I doubt the validity of all news to a certain level in that only part of the story is ever told. And yes I understand it is impossible for all parts of the story to even be known by everyone else...so, I doubt. Therefore, I am. Did a real life, real world educated PhD with research in a true laboratory setting discover some amazing new substance accidentally? Possibly. Would be nice. We know our continual accidents in the past lead directly to certain benefits of a scientific nature. Penicillin anyone?

In the end, I think I like most the fact that I was able to find a news source like this that can be based wherever (South Africa I believe) and know that area in a subtle, local manner that is always lost when internationally reported.
