ORIGIN OF HIV/AIDS
I support the previous writter, united we stand, divided we fall.
Origin of HIV/AIDS
ok, ok, guys, let's stop pointing fingers at each other and coming up with our own unfounded conspiracy theories about this matter. Why don't we sit down and look at ways and means to combat this highly infectious disease?Like campaigning against it , supporting those living with it, teaching and encouraging them to change their lifestyle{ sex life}And most importantly, fight against stigma and discrimination of people living with HIV/AIDS and those associated with them.And you know what my learned friends, THE WORLD WILL BE A MUCH BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN.
More myths on Aids bit of history on pandemics
1. HIV spreads like wildfire, only 8% heterosexual carryHIV become infected
2. Sex work is the problem, no few men with multiple partners pay for sex. In Africa women in financial agreements do not view self as prostitute.
3. Men are the problem, wrong women just as likely first infected as men. Women infection rates are soaring faster than men. In US poor minority women most likely affected more.
Teens are the problem, most diagnosis is late 20s and above and recently on rise senior population,
5. Poverty Discrimination problem, in developing countries infection more likely affluent
6. Condoms are answer, yes plays major part in prevention but where HIV widespread people have multiple partners at once and condom use intermintent.
7. HIV testing answer, wrong those whom know infected dont curb risky behavior, those most infectious test negative because not enough viralmaterial for diagnosis
8. Treatment answer, Antiviral medications help but people feel better resume sexual behavior and see HIV as not death threat.
9. New technology answer, technology still far in future no basis now, have false sense of hope
10. Sex behavior not change, having mutiple partners at once raises risk than those whom monogamous and one partner at a time,
TRUTH-FIDELITY
one partner long term lower risk but remember still practice safe sex get educated and know whom you sleep is all those whom slept with partner and thier partners multipled numerous times.
So also look at historical pandemics and there will be evidence transmute from animal virus to humans and then human to human contact bypassing original host.
Make sure you educate self and know that new outbreaks are not always caught in time and then only once outbreak happens and then cause of suspect found then treatments and avoidance of that situation can be done and minimize exposure to larger population. More and more mutations are happening now because of population culture proximity to live stock or host animal territory not really invaded till today for expansion of population and the ability to mutate rapi9dly so host is more hospitalble to infection.
Aids Virus
Aids did mutate from a monkey virus. When people have a close proximinty to animals the chance is greater of the virus mutating so it has a new host to replicate. This is especially true in flu viruses and it is happening more nowadays because populations are larger people live in close proximinty to their life stock and also with the over use of antibiotics and aniviral medications these viruses and bacterium can mutate rapidly for their survival. Just read basic cell information and virus information. you will see they rapidly make clones of themselves and can act as great imposters. Our bodies look at it one way when in reality these organisms are little assasins waiting to pounce in the trenches of life cycles. DNA testing is very sophisticated these days and it has even been coded by organisms that are millions of years old. It has also been able to tract maternal DNA and Paternal as well. DNA has even been extracted into its most simplier form of RNA the oldest RNA data gotten thus far over 4 billion years old. Some do blame governments for unleashing and experimenting with the human population when they have not been aware of it. These conspiracy therories are hogwash. I say to those that this was manmade get a life, get an education, read, study basic biology. and follow in the news the rapid growing mutations from animal viral diseases to how it mutates to humans and you will actually see that it is a growing concern because new variations of influenza are popping up everywhere. Look at populations, culteral differences and how these cultures deal with livestock, where livestock is housed, where populations are invading where people have never really been in large numbers, and also that we live in a global market where outbreaks in the past could be contained but with international travel, airplanes, cargo and passenger ships, and the huge diversity intermingling you will see it is not man made but nature protecting and producing offspring that is better suited now then later. It perturbs me that some people are so ignorant and don't research before opening mouth and inseting foot. No wonder ignorant fools try to be vocal because they are dumb and backwards that they do not know how to have an intellectual conversation and feel spreading these falsehoods in the guise of truth is unethical, barbaric and dumber than Neanderthals whom it turns out were very intelligent and we actually share some of the same DNA. Our ancestors Homo Sapiens have originated in Africa and then traveled to Europe where Neanderthals lived for thousands of years actually were very intelligent and the Neanderthals and Homo Sapiens actually comingles and became what we are today. Neanderthals actually made the first adhesives from a difficult process using birch bark. If not done correctly the first time it ruins the batch and it has to be restarted again. Yes I do agree it is good to question everything you read hear or told but also use head.
CHEETED AFRICA
You American you did to African what you people knows very well.even it was a mater of making money for your self.you did these intentionaly.Africa is now on danger of HIV/AIDS.God will judge you.cheeting african to take virus from chimpanzee.
yea right
man made? you people are weird!!!!!!!!
Aids virus
This article must be some disinformation. That is why they removed your comment on the origins of the AIDS virus. It was manmade and it was from biological warfare labs released in Africa as one of our country's most shameful experiments.
Why was my comment deleted?
I cited sources proving AIDS was man-made and America spread it willingly.
.. This response was deleted. May I inquire as to why? kirik's racist response remains but an intelligent one disagreeing with the article is removed.
STD
Since HIV is Sexually Transmitted and it is well documented that it originated a monkey virus, wouldn't that be enough "evidence" that it could have been transmitted sexually. Humans have been having sex with animals since the dawn of humanity and still are to this day. Google it.
asian women
my daughter in law is asian and has a small frame, and she had trouble delivering my grandaughter. I think my granddaughter is going to be a lot bigger than her mother because of the half white. If she would have married an asian guy with the same body built as her seems to me her pelvis would be able to deliver better.
