I FIRMLY believe Human Immunodeficiency Virus is actually a form of biological warfare created by the US government.

I just can't believe that something like this can just pop up out of nowhere.

You're a little paranoid, aren't you... 😑

And it didn't just "pop out of nowhere"--it comes originally from some kind of monkey in Africa. The first human to get the disease was a French airline steward.

ooh you sure about that DR?

There was an experimental cure in the New Scientist - a blood filtration machine. But most unfortunately nearly 10% of the virii managed to find their way back into the patient's body weep

it's always the french to blaim 😂

I once heard, dunno if it is true could have heard wrong think it was on national G that ppl can be immune to Aids (they will be positive but they'll never get aids)

All I know is that I don't want to get it.

Well that's what my science teacher told me anyways

Don't get me wrong I got nothin against the French, in fact, the French are the shiz

And that thing about people being immune to AIDS, I think there might be something to that cos I watched this show about cats (wild cats, that is) who are immune to what is supposed to be the "feline version of AIDS". Something about how cells all have little pores in them, but certain big cats started lacking those pores so it was impossible for the virus to enter the cells
Could be the same thing you're talking about but with people

yups, my bio teacher told me, there are some african prostitutes they are doing tests on, because they haven't got aids, although they've slept with tons of guys who have it

yeah, a Rhesus monkey bit him. don't know how the Rhesus monkey had it tho... 😑

that's what you get when you ignore the "do not feed" sign

It is a mutation of the Simian Immuno Deficiency virus.

I read an article in National Geographic that there is a connection between being immune to HIV and being immune to The Black Plague

"They (scientist) believe the two strains of Simian Immunodeficiency Viruses (SIVs) first came together in chimpanzees who had eaten monkeys carrying the different strains."
