Hello, I am looking for someone to write an article on AIDS and its Origin. It needs to be at least 1500 words. HIV is abbreviated for the term “Human Immune Deficiency Virus” and AIDS stands for “Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome”. AIDS is an incurable illness caused by the HIV virus. This virus breaks down the immune system which ultimately makes the body more vulnerable to all manner of infections and certain forms of cancer. Common bacteria, yeast, parasites, and viruses that normally do not cause serious disease in people with healthy immune systems can cause fatal illnesses in people with AIDS.
Origin and History of AIDS According to researchers’ one breed of chimp holds the evidence for rising of AIDS in the world. Scientists and researchers consider that ‘Pan Troglodytes’ – a subspecies of the common chimpanzee which lives in central Africa where AIDS is thought to have arisen is the originating site for this disease. Chimpanzees host a virus called SIV ‘Simian immunodeficiency syndrome’ which is regarded as being similar to HIV. The HIV transferred to humans in Africa in a period of 1886 to 1924 and enters Haiti in 1966 but how and why it was transferred to humans is still a matter of inference and speculation. The most commonly accepted theory about a transfer of illness is that of the hunter in which SIV was transferred to humans as a result of chimps being killed and eaten or their blood getting into cuts or wounds of the hunter. The first recognized case of AIDS occurred in the USA in the early 1980s and at that time AIDS did not yet have a name. Now it has been proved with clear evidence that HIV causes AIDS.
Type of Virus HIV is a lentivirus which attacks the immune system. Lentiviruses are part of a larger group of viruses known as retroviruses. The genome of retroviruses consists of RNA not DNA. HIV-1 and HIV-2, the agents that cause AIDS, are retroviruses. Retroviral genomes are non-segmented, of positive polarity, and typically between 7 to 12 kb long in size. .
