From: "DR .SADIQ HARRISON" <drsadiq_harrison@yahoo.co.uk> To: Firstname Lastname <emailaddress> Sent: Monday, 28 February, 2005 16:17 Subject: Re: ATTENTION. Dear Sir, I am sorry for my delay in reponding to your mail. It is due to pressue of work. For your information, my herbal remedy is standardized and efficacious in the treatment of HIV-AIDS. It contains anti-retroviral agents specifically to attack HIV 1&11, in addition,clinical test have confirmed that it contains proteus inhibitor,as you know what proteus inhibitor does is to destroy completely the HIV proteus enzymes that causes the growth and spread of the virus.Besides this, the drugs are beefed up with other herbal supplements that are highly enriched with vitamins;Vit C, Vit A & D,Vit B and Vit E which helps to replenish and strenghten the body immune system. All the drugs are produced from herbs and other natural ingredients and without adulteration, as a result it does not have any side effects and most importantly non of patients so far treated has ever complained of any relapse. Before I start adminstering drugs on any patients referred to me, it is important to have a good look at the patients medical record to determine whether it is type 1 or 11, as each of the drugs has a specific strenght of viral load it can carry, that is one unique thing about the drugs. I have an agent in Netherlands and South Africa that is solely in charge of distribution of the drugs in Europe and it's environs. If you wish to purchase the medicine and adminster it on the patients yourself on a recommended dose, I will instrust the agent to give it to you at a 10% discount. However, if you still want to refer patient(s) to me for treatment you are welcome. Having made this explanation, if you have any patient(s)lined up for me please let me know so that we can put heads together to work out a suitable modality. I look forward to hearing from you. Dr S Harrison
