And like so many new infections, AIDS appears to have been passed to humans from animals they slaughtered.

I'm not surprised (Though I was at the time I heard it). Not to sound arrogant, but I thought that had been known for a while... Maybe before it was the Green Monkey they believed they contracted it from, and now its simply the Chimpanzee.
In either case, I find it interesting and I hope this new information as to the origin of the HIV/AIDS virus will aid in the creation of a cure or possibly better treatments.

why not spend tons of money to educate people and prevent it from spreading further...theres no cure now and say in 5-10 years most of the aid patients would have died...no?
so tough luck to those that have it?? but money is better spent on education to prevent the spread??
Being close to residency and interested in HIV studies, I was very surprised to see this article!

If this is true....why not look into the real source of AIDS? Take a look at Camp Detrick in Maryland, USA. That's where AIDS was manufactured and then purposely set loose in Africa hiding in a vaccine for something else! Planned genocide by the good old USA!
I'm surprsied you were surprised by that article. The powers that be have been trying to blame AIDS on monkeys in Africa ever since it surfaced!
Camp Detrick....that's where you should look!
