AIDS & lemon juice: Bush impedes research



"Since 2002 Professor Roger Short has been promoting lemon juice as a cheap and effective microbicide for use in HIV/AIDS prevention and also as a contraceptive. Last year he discovered that he had been scooped by a group of commercial sex workers in Nigeria who have been using lemon juice for as long as 10 years. Professor Short now wants to do a study of this population but due to a withdrawal of US federal funding of studies of prostitutes unless they undertake to give up their profession, he has to find another source. So, he decided to launch the Mary Magdalene Project to raise research money." [Emphasis mine.]
