Fauci: The Bernie Madoff of Science and the HIV Ponzi Scheme that Concealed the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic

   Three unique works of political and satirical fiction that capture the universe of lies, disinformation, and prejudice that constitute the epidemic of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The Stonewall Massacre is an alternative history of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic and the Stonewall Riots. If the gay movement had been destroyed at Stonewall in 1969, would there have been an AIDS epidemic as we know it? Would the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic have been recognized as the real AIDS epidemic? Told from the perspective of a man who lives to tell the story of the Stonewall Riots, the story comes to a shocking conclusion. The African Swine Fever Novel has been called "The Animal Farm of our time." This satirical fable uses talking pigs to raise serious questions about the role of propaganda and disinformation to control what people think and do about epidemics. Anybody who knows the cockamamie history of the CDC and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic will appreciate the book's sarcasm and numerous irreverent passages. The humor in the book is dark and the vision of current and future public health situation is apocalyptic. The Closing Argument is about an African-American man who is accused of spreading AIDS. His lawyer captures the attention of the world when he puts the government on trial for lying about the relationship of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and AIDS. In a very detailed and science-based closing argument, the lawyer attempts to open the eyes of the jurors to the fact that the truth about AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome lies behind a mask of scientific fraud and deception. The unpleasant truth about AIDS and CFS is that racist and antigay thinking are the coin of the epidemiological realm. The unresolved conclusion forces the reader to act as a juror by deciding the verdict. Is the government covering up the relationship between AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or isn't it? The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is available on Amazon in print, Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.

Three excerpts from The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Trilogy by Charles Ortleb

This podcast features comments by Hillary Johnson made on April 5, 2019 at the NIH Conference on ME/CFS which was held at the NIH main campus. Johnson called for a dramatic increase in funding for ME/CFS research. What was most notable about her comments is that she seems to have been the only person at the two-day conference to noted that ME/CFS is probably transmissible. Perhaps the only way that transmission or contagiousness of ME/CFS will ever get the attention it deserves is an NIH conference simply devoted to transmission of the disease. Or transmission and the role of viruses.    The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up is available at Amazon.

A brief excerpt from The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up by Charles Ortleb Narrated by Larry Wayne Available in all formats at Amazon.com  Audiobook Paperback Hardcover Kindle and Kindle Unlimited

This bestseller is available at Amazon in hardcover, paperback, Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and audiobook.

  Charles Ortleb, the former Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of New York Native, debunks the scientific empire that has enriched Anthony Fauci and made him an iconic figure in American science and medicine. Ortleb argues that, like Bernie Madoff', Fauci has built his reputation on fraud and deceit. For at least two decades, Madoff ran a financial Ponzi scheme while Fauci has run a scientific Ponzi scheme for more than three decades. While Bernie Madoff defrauded 4,800 people out of their money, Fauci's HIV Ponzi scheme has undermined the health and civil rights of millions of people all over the world. Ortleb argues that Fauci's AIDS empire should be considered a criminal enterprise and that the AIDS-related HHV-6 epidemic (which includes Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) will only end when Fauci's HIV Ponzi scheme ends.

Is Anthony Fauci the Bernie Madoff of AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?

An excerpt from The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up available at CFSbook.com   If you want to know the truth about the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic, you need to discover the reporting of Neenyah Ostrom. And you have to be brave enough to learn about the relationship between the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic and AIDS. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a serious immunological illness that seems to be caused by a very destructive virus. To fully understand the seriousness of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic, you need to go back in time. On April 16, 1996, Congressman Jerrold Nadler spoke on the floor of Congress about his request for a General Accounting investigation into how the CDC had handled the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic. Nadler did that at the urging of Charles Ortleb, the publisher of the New York Native, and his reporter Neenyah Ostrom. Ortleb and Ostrom had made the case to Nadler that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the virus it had been linked to, HHV-6, were serious public health issues. In an interview in New York Native with Neenyah Ostrom, Congressman Nadler said, "Congress can mandate research into CFS as a viral disease. Maybe it will turn out that HHV-6A is the cause of CFS; maybe it will turn out that other viruses are involved. But Congress can mandate research into CFS as a contagious, viral disease. I will certainly try to get Congress to do that as soon as possible." Unfortunately, back in 1996, Nadler's warning to Congress and the medical establishment fell on deaf ears. But now that the Democrats have regained power in the House of Representatives, the newly prominent Congressman Nadler may finally be able to bring the CFS epidemic and HHV-6 to the public's attention. This book by Charles Ortleb, which details Neenyah Ostrom's diligent reporting on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, is necessary reading for anyone who wants to know the whole history of an epidemic which has been hidden in plain sight. For a decade, starting in 1988, Ostrom reported on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the damage that the virus HHV-6 does to patients. What her reporting uncovered about the nature of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic will shock you. In The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up, Charles Ortleb recounts his newspaper's fascinating struggle to get the medical and political establishment to pay attention to Ostrom's pioneering investigative reporting on CFS. By the time you finish Ortleb's stunning memoir, you will understand why the CDC has been unwilling to tell the truth about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The CDC does not want the public to know that CFS is a transmissible illness linked to a virus that affects every system in the body. They have covered up CFS for so many decades that the neglected virus is totally out of control. Now it is causing a long list of other illnesses and many cancers. The CDC has put us all in danger. Ostrom's decade of reporting on HHV-6 was recently vindicated by this statement from scientists at the University of Wurzburg:"While HHV-6 was long believed to have no negative impact on human health, scientists today increasingly suspect the virus of causing various diseases such as multiple sclerosis or chronic fatigue syndrome. Recent studies even suggest that HHV-6 might play a role in the pathogenesis of several diseases of the central nervous system such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression or Alzheimer's." The big question about Neenyah Ostrom and New York Native is this: How many lives would have been saved if the scientific establishment and the mainstream media had paid more attention to Neenyah Ostrom's reporting on HHV-6 and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in New York Native? Anyone who wants to help Congressman Nadler and the other members of Congress who are trying to end the suffering of millions of people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, needs to read The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up.

The Closing Argument    A 2-hour audio book that brings the racial and sexual politics of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic out of the closet. Listen to The Closing Argument now on Amazon and at Audible  On Amazon On Audible in the USA On Audible in the U.K. On Audible in France On Audible in Germany This bold, uncompromising book is the Uncle Tom's Cabin of the AIDS and chronic fatigue syndrome epidemics. It's one of those books that will inspire you to think outside of the box. Destined to be a controversial independent film, The Closing Argument is a provocative courtroom novella about an African-American man who is tried in Connecticut for the crime of infecting a woman with HIV, the virus that the American government has declared the official cause of AIDS. In a move that shocks the nation, his attorney puts the government and the AIDS establishment on trial and tries to convince the jury that everything the public has been told about the nature of the AIDS and CFS epidemics is both racist and homophobic. The author makes you the jury and you have to decide from the attorney's closing argument if you can believe anything you've been told about AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome, HIV and HHV-6. This is the first work of fiction in history to focus on the cover-up of the devastating virus HHV-6 which has now been linked to many diseases in addition to AIDS and chronic fatigue syndrome. Nicholas Regush, former producer at ABC News called the book "Eye-popping reading if you dare to expand your scope of thinking about AIDS and justice." From 1980 until 1997, Charles Ortleb was the publisher and editor-in-chief of New York Native which Wikipedia describes as "the only gay paper in New York during the early part of the AIDS epidemic" which "pioneered reporting on the AIDS epidemic when others ignored it." On May 18, 1981, New York Native published the world's very first report on the disease that would become known as AIDS. In his book, And the Band Played On, Randy Shilts described the New York Native coverage of the epidemic as being "singularly thorough" and "voluminous." In Rolling Stone, David Black said that New York Native deserved a Pulitzer prize for its AIDS coverage. In an interview in New York Press, Nicholas Regush, a producer for ABC News and a reporter for Montreal Gazette, said that New York Native did "an astounding job" in its coverage of AIDS and credited it with "educating him early on." In a profile titled "The Outsider" in Rolling Stone in 1988, Katie Leishman wrote that "It is undeniable that many major AIDS stories were Ortleb's months and sometimes years before mainstream journalists took them up. Behind the scenes he exercises an enormous unacknowledged influence on the coverage of the medical story of the century." In addition to pioneering the coverage of AIDS, New York Native was the only publication in the world to have a reporter, Neenyah Ostrom, who provided weekly coverage of the emergence of the epidemic of chronic fatigue syndrome and its scientific and political relationship to AIDS. Hillary Johnson, in her groundbreaking history of chronic fatigue syndrome, Osler's Web, wrote that "Ortleb, in fact, increasingly suspected the AIDS outbreak was merely a modest subset of the more pervasive, immune-damaging epidemic disease claiming heterosexuals--chronic fatigue syndrome." The breaking news about chronic fatigue syndrome and HHV-6 these days seems to suggest that much of New York Native's controversial take on the relationship between AIDS, chronic fatigue syndrome and HHV-6 is being vindicated.        

The Closing Argument

The Stonewall Massacre The beginning was the end.   Ken Kamlet narrates one of the most important works of fiction that Charles Ortleb has ever written. The lengthy short story is a work of alternative history that imagines what would have happened if the gay movement in had been destroyed in its infancy. What if the Stonewall riots had resulted in a bloody suppression of gay people all over America? What would society be like now? Would there have been an AIDS epidemic? "The Stonewall Massacre" is told from the perspective of a waiter who witnesses the destruction of the gay community in 1969 in Greenwich Village. In this thought experiment, the Stonewall Riots fail and lead to a massive backlash against the gay community. He watches in horror as an antigay backlash takes place all over America. What happens to the gay community in this story resembles what is happening to gays across the globe these days. But that is just the beginning. This witty and visionary story jumps ahead to the outbreak of the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic. Because there is no visible gay community and no visible gay AIDS epidemic, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is recognized as the real AIDS epidemic. Without a gay community to scapegoat, the women who are first victims of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome find themselves being treated as AIDS pariahs. Written by one of the most uncompromising American journalists and the author of "The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up," this story raises uncomfortable questions that have the potential to change the course of history. This story is also a kind of coming out of the virus HHV-6, a virus which Ortleb has called "The Fifty Shades of AIDS virus," because it has been linked with many diseases that seem to be connected to the AIDS epidemic. For decades, Charles Ortleb has been criticized and mocked for focusing his journalism on HHV-6. But that is now changing. Ortleb's reporting on HHV-6's role in multiple diseases was recently vindicated by this statement from the University of Wurzburg: "While HHV-6 was long believed to have no negative impact on human health, scientists today increasingly suspect the virus of causing various diseases such as multiple sclerosis or chronic fatigue syndrome. Recent studies even suggest that HHV-6 might play a role in the pathogenesis of several diseases of the central nervous system such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression or Alzheimer's."

About Charles Ortleb's Amazon Bestseller, The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up If you want to know the truth about the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic, you need to discover the reporting of Neenyah Ostrom.

In The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up, Charles Ortleb recounts his newspaper's struggle to get the medical and political establishment to pay attention to Ostrom's pioneering investigative reporting on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

The CDC does not want the public to know that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a transmissible illness linked to a virus called HHV-6 that affects every system in the body. They have covered up the illness for so many decades that the neglected virus is totally out of control. Now it is causing a long list of other illnesses and many cancers. Nobody in the world covered the emergence of HHV-6 and its link to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome more than Neenyah Ostrom. Ostrom's decade of reporting on HHV-6 was recently vindicated by this statement from scientists at the University of Wurzburg: "While HHV-6 was long believed to have no negative impact on human health, scientists today increasingly suspect the virus of causing various diseases such as multiple sclerosis or chronic fatigue syndrome.

The big question about Neenyah Ostrom and New York Native is this: How many lives would have been saved if the scientific establishment and the mainstream media had paid more attention to Neenyah Ostrom's reporting on HHV-6 and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in New York Native? One day, if there is any justice in the world, the CDC and the medical establishment will apologize for not paying attention to Neenyah Ostrom's groundbreaking work on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome that Charles Ortleb published in New York Native. That would be a fitting end to one of journalism's greatest David and Goliath stories. Read a free excerpt at www.CFSbook.com
