Dear readers,

We are pleased to announce the relaunch of Secrets of HIV-AIDS & Ebola Journal, an independent health blog dedicated to publishing articles on HIV, AIDS, haemorrhagic viruses, public health issues, and healthy living.

 

For several years, the publication attracted readers seeking alternative perspectives and in-depth discussions on important health topics affecting communities around the world. After a period of inactivity, the journal has returned with a renewed commitment to delivering thought-provoking content, health awareness, and informative reporting.

Questions of Trust and Transparency in Health Journalism

 

                            

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the so-called CNN chief medical correspondent

Dear Mr. or Dr. Sanjay Gupta, my name is Joel Savage, an African writer in Belgium. Even though the black man has lost his respect and identity through slavery, Apartheid, oppression, and all kinds of cruelties today, I have still taken the liberty to write to you because the code of ethics you follow in your medical journalism is full of lies and deceptions. 

 

I never had the chance to study at the university; therefore, I don’t have a doctoral degree. However, unlike you, I have the brain and courage to write the truth about man-made diseases that have inflicted pain, distress, and suffering on mankind, especially in Africa today, which you have been lying about all the time.
