Whoa! Amazing theory and very plausible.
Gaëtan Dugas?
The question, of course, has always been how did Dugas get it?
Somewhere along the line, some African had sex with a chimpanzee...
I knew a Lebanese Christian family who immigrated to New York via Haiti. The mother was tall, attractive, francophone, fluent in English and worked for Air France at JFK. The father was short, ugly and they lived apart, estranged, though he kept in contact with his children. The father retained business interests in Haiti, and traveled there occasionally. He died in the late 1970’s after a long illness, which baffled his doctors. I’ve always wondered if, ...
A gay friend died in Baltimore in 1975/6. He suffered from IDS for about 4 years. This was 5 or more years before AIDS was officially diagnosed in this population. Since then we have suspected he was an early undiagnosed case of AIDS.
I once got brucellosis from cutting my finger while quartering a caribou I shot along the Kuskokwim River. The caribou blood mixed with my blood; I almost died from the disease. I can easily believe that this can happen.
There was a case in 1959 in the UK and another in a black teenager in St Louis in 1969.
The Dugas story was possibly true but not the explanation for the epidemic.
I still remember in the early 80s, working in the Chrysler Building, reading a Times Article about men with cancerous sarcomas - believed to be caused by poppers. Having worked in Studio 54 on the weekends, I had been exposed to poppers although never did it myself - I was afraid of drugs. That was the first shoe dropping...
And next year there will be a new theory. As long as the gubmint keeps handing out money for research there will be new theories for everything from ketchup pouring to aids research. And everything in between.
Ummm ... now I heard it was the USA experimenting with monkeys in Africa, in order to create the disease ... so that the USA could infect the blacks in Africa, to keep them poor there, and then to bring the disease over to the blacks in the USA!
At least that’s what I heard from a guy before the people in the white coats hauled him off ... LOL ...
Interesting that gay sex was scarcely mentioned in the article.
Two horrible thoughts occur to me on this ...
1. What else a human might have been doing with a chimp besides hunting it.
2. This happened so long ago that the human could well have been Tarzan. (”I say, Jane, do you know what Tarzan is up to when doesn’t get home to the tree house until very late at night?”
Actually, a doctor at Children’s Hospital in St. Louis had a black teenage patient who died in 1969 of an unknown disease. She froze a blood sample and it was positive for AIDS when tested in 1983. She believed that her patient was in fact having gay sex with TWA stews for extra money and may be patient 1, with a gay TWA being patient 0.
Unprotected gay sex. Plain and simple. Any questions? Not only did they spread it amongst their gay partners they decided to ‘share the love’ with innocents who received blood products from the homosexuals.
Wait...Reagan caused the AIDS epidemic by not funding enough money to stop AIDS...
I have it on good authority from the libtard media, loony tunes progressives and the velvet mafia.../ S
It's likely that in addition to other theories, there was a homosexual-tourism to Haiti—a short flight—where young Haitian boys were vulnerable to dollars.
Does it REALLY matter how now?
HOW will it END???
Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."
Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.
Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.
1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
Things like this happen when you monkey around!
