Yet more dis-information ,this time from the avert website..They are just buying bad science......"during the last few years it has become possible not only to determine whether hiv is present in a blood or plasma sample, but also to determine the particular subtype of the virus. Studying the subtype of virus of some of the earliest known instances of hiv infection can help to provide clues about the time it first appeared in humans and its subsequent evolution.
Three of the earliest known instances of hiv infection are as follows:
1. A plasma sample taken in 1959 from an adult male living in what is now the democratic republic of congo.
2. Hiv found in tissue samples from an american teenager who died in st. Louis in 1969.
3. Hiv found in tissue samples from a norwegian sailor who died around 1976.
A 1998 analysis of the plasma sample from 1959 has suggested7 that hiv-1 was introduced into humans around the 1940s or the early 1950s; much earlier than previously thought. Other scientists have dated the sample to an even earlier period - perhaps as far back as the end of the 19th century.
In january 2000 however, the results of a new study presented at the 7th conference on retroviruses and opportunistic infections, suggested that the first case of hiv-1 infection occurred around 1930 in west africa . The study was carried out by dr bette korber of the los alamos national laboratory. The estimate of 1930 (which does have a 15 year margin of error) was based on a complicated computer model of hiv's evolution. If accurate, it means that hiv was in existence before many scenarios (such as the opv and conspiracy theories) suggest."......Again,notice the lack of science here,and the aging ,always ,is in refrence to atomic decay,which does not apply to retro-viruses...This bad-info is all over the net and we pay with repeated mistakes when the truth is distorted and buried.The first dead tissue comes from 1958,the first polio vaccine was in 1957,same place..So how long are we going to put up with this campaign of lies???
