Genius epidemicus and the miasma of AIDS – a letter from Africa.
In accordance with Hahnemann’s § 100 in the Organon the Autor emphasises the need for individualisation even in epidemic diseases such as AIDS. According to his analysis, the HIV infection is, miasmatically, closer to the tuberculinic miasm than to the syphilitic miasm. The complexity of this disease is demonstrated by a list of the homeopathic remedies he most frequently prescribes.
