Well HIV/AIDS was introduced to the human population from monkeys. Get your mind out of the gutter, No, it didn't happen by the reproductive way, it happened when meat was cut off of a monkey and the blood from the raw meat came into contact with a wound on the butcher's hand. Then from Immigration and babies inheriting it, it spread around the world.
