ok i've been doing a bit of research, i watched a programme a while back and wanted to find some stuff to back up what they said:
It is now generally accepted that HIV is a descendant of simian (monkey) immunodeficiency virus (SIV).

The researchers concluded that HIV could have crossed over from chimpanzees as a result of a human killing a chimp and eating it for food.
according to the site, the first reported case of aids was in usa in 1981.......
