---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2000 11:02:30 -0400 From: JONIFERRIS <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PINPOINTING THE BIRTH OF HIV New evidence suggests that the strains of HIV that caused the AIDS pandemic originated in the 1930s, according to a report in this week's issue of the journal Science. Bette Kopler and her colleagues at the Los Alamos National Laboratory analyzed the gene sequences of different strains of the HIV virus, using supercomputers to estimate that the virus began spreading in human beings between 1915 and 1941, most likely in 1931. This contrasts with theories that the HIV virus was introduced to humans through polio vaccination programs in the late 1950s. The results suggest that the virus may have been transmitted to humans near the turn of the century and remained isolated in a small population of humans until 1930. "Establishing the date of emergence of HIV is imperative to elucidating how transmission occurred and to finding ways to prevent zoonotic transmission in the future," according to David M. Hillis, a researcher at the University of Texas in Austin. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 2000 by United Press International.
