Paul Ehrlich Claims To Have Predicted AIDS in the 1960s: ‘We predicted in the 1960s the AIDS epidemic, and it came along. And we’re going to have more just like it’
‘Population Bomb’ Author Paul Ehrlich interivewed in ‘EarthSky Magazine’ in 2004:
Excerpt of 2004 Paul Ehrlich interivew: “One of the things that few people understand is that the epidemiological environment, that is, our susceptibility as a species to diseases, is running downhill very rapidly as our population gets larger. This is in part because of the things we add to water, which are very dangerous to us. It’s in part because the more people we have, the more likely it is that new diseases will jump into our population from animal populations, particularly in Africa. And, it’s in part due too our rapid transport systems so that sick people can spread diseases rapidly around the world, as for example, SARS indicated. We predicted in the 1960s the AIDS epidemic, and it came along. And we’re going to have more just like it.”

Listen Now: Climate Depot’s Morano on ‘lunacy of Paul Ehrlich’: ‘Ehrlich should go down in history as one of the most disgraced scientists that we have ever seen’ – ‘Paul Ehrlich should be disgraced, scientifically, politically culturally — instead he is given awards and he is praised by the Obama administration. It is a perversion of science’ — (Audio here and also see: Ehrlich called ‘Worse than Hitler’)
