I always thought it was monkeys who created AIDS, and it was spread by gays. But am happy to switch to blaming the yanks.

 

When Aids first appeared it appeared in homosexuals in New York and Black Africans. I would suggest that these separate groups were the first to be given the "vacine", probably in the form of a hepatitis vacine.

More hysterical conspiracy guff regurgitated for the hopelessly gullible.

 

There IS a dispute about whether Gallo or a French scientist first identified the HIV virus. And it's been demonstrated by scientific analysis that Gallo's first sample must to some extent have originated in the French lab. Therefore credit for the discovery is now shared between the two. This means, however, that the virus was out there well before Gallo came along. Gallo did not 'create' AIDS.

In any event, surely, if someone 'created' AIDS, then they'd know how to cure it?

 

And make a pretty mint too, I might add.

 

the best cure is prevention. if you don't dip your wick into anything that moves and don't use heroin then you won't get it. Although there are some rare cases of catching it through blood transfusion.

I doubt it. The guy who invented the nuclear warhead has no idea how to prevent radiation poisoning.

It wouldn't surprise me if it was a biological weapon gone wrong, or if there were an aweful lot more sinister 'weapons' out there waiting to be accidentally or purposely released.

 

But then look at the actual disease. If you wanted a weapon, you wouldn't want it to be so slow acting as AIDS is, you would want it to take effect very quickly and to completely incapacitate or severely hinder an enemy and would also want it to be very very contagious in the form of an airborne disease. AIDS is reletively easily avoidable (to an extent) and although very very damaging is hardly immediately harmful to life.

 

An Ebola type weapon would be worse.
