AIDS denialism is a curious thing. There was this magazine Continuum which claimed AIDS was a conspiracy unrelated to HIV. The tragic irony is that the magazine stopped publishing because all the major contributors died of AIDS.

It ran from December 1992 until February 2001, ceasing publication because all the contributors had died of AIDS-defining clinical conditions.
