There is actually a somewhat large AIDS denialist movement. 300,000 people passed away in South Africa a decade ago, because some in the Government distributed propaganda to the people, proclaiming HIV did not cause AIDS. Even former boxer Tommy Morrison bought into this theory a year after contacting the disease, and it ultimately cost him his life.

I'm very surprised that the parents of the deceased child did not bother checking into the credentials of the holistic healer. There were many red flags.
