Anita,

As far as I know the HIV tests are completely unreliable to diagnose an

infants less than 24 months old as 75% of these infants serorevert to HIV

negative.

see the Perth Group scientific analysis

,

You are correct that maternal antibodies are still picked up on DNA-

PCR sometimes even upto 2 years of age. However, some of these kids

in the orphanage are more than 3 years old. Even for the kids under

3, because of the repeated HIV positive tests, it is very difficult

for them to be adopted. I have the opportunity to suggest some

dietary modifications as well as alternative therapies for these

children, but wanted to know if anyone had any experience with

this. I would be particularly interested in Dr. s method.

Thanks,

Anita
