The origin of HIV According to our and other results there is strong objection again generally accepted dogma that HIV was transmitted to humans from apes in Africa about or according to last assertion 100 years ago en route of accidental contacts. There is not evidence about transmission of retroviruses between two different species in nature. Should be HIV only one exception in nature? Are there adequate proofs for this statement? The problem is that the acceptance of this dubious argument has a major influence on – research, diagnosis and therapy of AIDS. How is it possible that this unconvincing argument was adopted by a ​​ large part experts???

Our hypothesis HIV is of human origin and has been an integral part of humans from the beginning of our existance. We inherited it from our ancestors. Bacteria/yeasts are most likely natural host of HIV sequences. But, there is serious objection – if HIV was in our body from our beginning, why did it’s emerge just about years ago? To answer this question we should go back into the ancient history of humankind. In the past, major epidemics frequently occurred when there were new patterns of transport between separately populated areas. This tremendous longtime „sanitary“ process resulted in establishment of the balance between these two kingdoms. This balance was interrupted in the middle of the 20. century due to acceptation of ATBs, drugs and changes in life style (homo and anal sex). Propagated pathogenic microbes, some of which contain viral and HIV genetic information, are provided resistance to antibiotics and ability to penetrate into the body. When bacteria carrying the HIV-like sequences penetrated into the blood, interact with lymphocytes, infected/lyse them consequently the immune system has collapsed. The result of this process is..... AIDS

This hypothese is assumed that transmission of HIV from apes to humans during last decades as a consequence of their accidental contacts - is not a cause of AIDS. The presence of HIV sequences in intestinal bacteria and yeasts of the patients may be explained as follows: 1) Based on our results, we assume that intestinal bacteria / yeast is a natural host of HIV sequences in extrachromosomal or other forms. 2) But it is conceivable that intestinal bacteria/yeast were infected with the HIV genetic material, previously present in human cells, particularly in macrophages / lymphocytes, after their degradation. Our hypothesis may opens new opportunities for research and treatment of AIDS

and now, we are able to answer on many until now unanswered questions

Presented hypothesis answer to many until now unanswered questions: - origin of HIV - large scale HIV positivity in Africa, - connection of AIDS with TBC in Africa, - absence of „gold standard“ in Africa, - the presence of HIV reservoirs after antiretroviral therapy, - atypical course of disease in comparision with other retroviral infections - the rarity of complete viral particles detection in the material from AIDS patients, but detection of HIV sequences and the HIV-like proteins (antigens) herein - high AZT toxicity - and others.....
