New type of HIV
« on: August 03, 2009, 05:31:22 PM »
Just heard this on the wireless. New and different strain of HIV.

The BBC says it originates with gorillas.

A woman from Cameroon has it.

How does that werk then?

Either way shagging was involved, you mark my words.... I will go and investigate... 8)


"In conclusion, our findings indicate that gorillas, in addition to chimpanzees, are likely sources of HIV-1," the report states. "The discovery of this novel HIV-1 lineage highlights the continuing need to watch closely for the emergence of new HIV variants, particularly in western central Africa, the origin of all existing HIV-1 groups."


That's ok then!
