What if we find out HIV was also manufactured in a lab?
?️ DISCUSSION ?
The "patient zero" pilot story sounded like BS to me even at the time. Thoughts?
Edward Hooper has a lengthy book on the subject and it’s the only theory that really fits.
There’s also a great Rolling Stone article from 1994 that may still be archived called “the origin of aids” and a corresponding documentary.
Bonus fact, they used polio vaccine as an experimental treatment for herpes, specifically for gay men. That explains the explosion we saw in the gay community.
That's a good point, even if it did originate in Africa from contact while hunting, was it a group of gay hunters? You can try to explain the growth in Africa that way but how it made its way into gay populations in trendy American cities is never explained. I will look into this, thank you!
Check out Hooper’s debunking of the official “debunking”. Very convincing.
It’s also getting pretty hard to find this info. I used to be able to quickly pull up some sources. Now I have to do some digging.
Here’s one from 1992: https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1992/04/05/did-a-polio-vaccine-experiment-unleash-aids-in-africa/0fb7cac2-0b3a-4ec3-8a78-5f032b639bf9/
Bonus fact: Salk and other polio researchers started working on an HIV vaccine later in their careers. I wonder what pushed them in that direction ?
