So-Called HIV Antibody Tests -- Part 2: Western Blot
HIV AIDS Medical Testing: "HIV Testing"(claimed) HIV Antibody Tests include ELISA and Western Blot
Part 2 -- Western Blot

Like the ELISA test, the Western Blot tests blood samples for antibodies to a group of selected proteins. These proteins are assumed to come from HIV and also assumed to be unique to HIV, but neither assumption has been proven. In fact, it is known that the proteins used in the test are not unique to HIV, and not proven to be present in HIV.
Nevertheless, these assumptions are held without proof and despite evidence to the contrary. Under these unsupported assumptions, the proteins are separated into bands, so that it can be seen how many individual protein bands the antibodies react with, as if this tells us something important.
Since the test is based on both false and unproven assumptions about the proteins used, the results cannot be interpreted with any serious degree of validity.
To make matters worse, these proteins are not immune from cross-reactivity with antibodies not specifically made in response to the presence of these same proteins in the individual whose blood is being tested.
Yet, that fact, too, is ignored. By ignoring these indisputable facts, people whose antibodies react with a arbitrary minimal strength against a band or combination of bands that, incredibly, is different from one country to the next, are told that they are "positive." Furthermore, in an even more far-fetched stretch into the Twilight Zone, they are told that having a nonspecific antibody reaction with these protein of uncertain origin and established non-uniqueness means that they have an active HIV infection.
What nonsense.
So what if the Western Blot separates the (assumed) "HIV" proteins so you can see specifically which proteins react with antibody, which do not, and how strong the reaction is.
It may look impressive, and it's actually a lot of work, but who needs to know which proteins react if you don't even know where the proteins come from? Then, too, there are even different criteria for different countries, and the lab technicians can add their own creativity as well.
The Western blot is typically used to "confirm" the positive result of an ELISA test. The Western Blot test has faded from popularity, and it is no longer used in the UK for already about 10 years. The alternative is to use two ELISA tests from different manufacturers. But using one non-validated test to confirm another, or merely repeating the same non-validated test manufactured by two companies, does not yield a valid result.
Both so-called "HIV" antibody tests should be banned globally. No sane and cognitive person who understands these tests would submit to them.

HIV & AIDS Alternatives: The HIV Western Blot Test - Criteria for a positive test result.
Several thousand scientists claim that "HIV," if it even exists, is harmless, and was never proven to cause AIDS or any other illness, disease, or syndrome. Analyses of decades of epidemiological data lead to the conclusion that AIDS is not contagious, The tests are not valid, and so-called Anti-Retro-Viral (ARV) medication is toxic and dangerous to health and survival.
