I’m not sure which is the most surprising fact from this story about the origins of AIDS — that the disease in humans pre-dates WWII, or that HIV first came to America in 1969.

Presumably, you know that this is not the only hypothesis out there and that another hypothesis associates the origins of HIV to polio research in Africa. One can make a case for either hypothesis. Most likely neither case will ever be conclusive.

seriously… the polio research theory is one that was thoroughly covered by rolling stone. maybe you’ve heard of the publication? i read the article the other day.
