David Rasnick, PhD, is a scientist with over two decades of pharmaceutical experience, renowned for his work on the aneuploidy theory of cancer, protease inhibitors, and his role on South Africa’s Presidential AIDS Advisory Panel.
In other words, he knows a lot about cancer and AIDS.
David wrote a fantastic commentary on the death of science, called The Tyranny of Dogma, in which he argues that institutional despotism suppresses dissent and perpetuates junk science through a systemic corruption of professional and governmental institutions.
David arrived in South Africa in the 1990s to advise the then-president, Thabo Mbeki, who was recalled after he publicly (and correctly) questioned the link between HIV and AIDS, wondering why it primarily affected Black people.
Interestingly, his 2001 Presidential Aids Advisory Panel Report highlights the unreliability of PCR tests, and, over two decades later, I have realised that he was right all along and everyone—including me—incorrectly dismissed him back then.
