two different monkeys bred and two diseases mixed into HIV of SIC for the monkeys for Simian immunodeficiency virus and it spread to chimpanzees. Two theories that people think chimpanzees spread it to us are 1 the butchers would cut up the chimps and they would be infected with the blood or 2 the chimps would bite people
It is hypothesized that it originated in apes, and was carried over to humans through hunters. It was not uncommon for a hunter to cut themselves with a knife or a sharp bone while dressing out the apes, leaving an avenue for blood transmission.
Monkeys don't get HIV, the H stands for Human. But monkeys and apes can carry another, closely related viral disease, which made its way into humans - most probably through the "Bush Meat trade" - and mutated into the HIV strain(s) which can strike humans.
Obviously yes it was . i mean common . Obviously yes it was . i mean common .
Yes, it does come from the chimpanzee, durr ! :]
The theory is it MAY have evolved from a virus from monkeys, BUT it is ONLY a theory.
HIV-1, a virus is evolved from a monkey virus, SIV (Simian immunodeficiency virus).
Only humans can have HIV's Monkeys have SIV's.
Although HIV is believed to have evolved from a similar virus in monkeys it is not the same in monkeys, this variant is known as SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus)
No , HIV is specific for human . Monkeys have protein that has destructive power which prevents them from HIV. Though SIV is affective against these monkeys.
NO, ducks cant get HIV. HIV is only spread in humans and a virus similar is in monkeys. The virus can't be spread in ducks.
HIV was not technically "made." It was a strand of virus that spread from Monkeys to humans in South Africa during the 1800s.
Scientists believe that HIV Came from monkey blood in Brazil or Africa when people were eating a monkey and didnt cook it or clean it all the way. HIV is thearied to be dormant in monkeys because its not a whide spread noticable sickness, monkeys arent dying left and right, but on the other hand it would be abnormal for HIV in moneys for form into AIDS because monkeys dont have many sicknesses to fear. another theory is that just that one monkey could have had the first sign of HIV and because it was at the stage of AIDS it was too slow or weak to get away from its captors and consumed, thus sickening humans from wrong cooking or cleaning.
Hiv orginated from Africa when hunters became infected with blood from rare subspecies of chimpanzees. The first know case of hiv was reported in 1959 from a man in the Congo republic.
HIV and AIDS first originated in Africa, it was first spread in monkeys (not sexually) and when the local ate the monkeys they would be infected and over time the virus mutated to be passed on as an STD and normal bodily fluid contacts.
Green monkeys in Africa....1970's
yes that's where monkeys come from other monkeys getting pregnant
If he has HIV and you come into proper contact with it yes.
Well, Monkeys and apes are from the same ancestors. We are not from monkeys.
