New HIV strain jumps from gorillas to humans
August 3rd, 2009
A new form of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, has been confirmed in a woman Cameroon. French scientist have discovered that the strain originated in gorillas. Previous HIV infections have been traced back to monkeys. Also, a recent study shows a virus in chimps has been associated with an AIDS-like disease.
In Revelation 6 we see the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride. The Pale horse kills a fourth of the earth with disease attributed to war, hunger and the beasts of the earth (Revelation 6:8). The deadliest fast-spreading diseases of our time come from animals, including Ebola (monkeys), AIDS (green monkey virus), avian flu (birds), and the above diseases, among many others.
