漁夫의 이것저것; Juvenile delinquency

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 the Congo.^[127]
2. HIV found in tissue samples from a 15 year old African-American teenager who died in St. Louis in 1969.^[128]
3. HIV found in tissue samples from a Norwegiansailor who died around 1976.^[129]

  Two species of HIV infect humans: HIV-1and HIV-2.  HIV-1 is more virulent and more easily transmitted. HIV-1 is the source of the majority of HIV infections throughout the world, while HIV-2 is not as easily transmitted and is largely confined to West Africa.^[130] Both HIV-1 and HIV-2 are of primate origin.  The origin of HIV-1 is the Central Common Chimpanzee(Pan troglodytes troglodytes) found in southern Cameroon.^[131]  It is established that HIV-2 originated from the Sooty Mangabey(Cercocebus atys), an Old World monkey of Guinea Bissau, Gabon, and Cameroon.

  Most experts believe that HIV probably transferred to humans as a result of direct contact with primates, for instance during hunting or butchery.

  요점; 현재 가장 유행하는 HIV의 형태는 원래 중앙 아프리카 침팬지에 있었는데 사냥이나 도살 등의 과정에서 인간에게 옮겨졌으리라 짐작한다고 돼 있습니다.

  Ebola ] 역시 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebola에서.

Ebola is believed to be a zoonotic virus.  Despite considerable effort by the World Health Organization no animal reservoir capable of sustaining the virus between outbreaks has been identified. However, it has been hypothesized that the most likely candidate is the fruit bat.  In the absence of knowing where the reservoir lies, the World Health Organization has taken serious steps to ensure that all known Biosafety Level 4 agents (including Ebola) are carefully and properly contained.

  요점; 에볼라 바이러스는 연구자들이 끈질기게 노력했음에도 불구하고 아직 동물 숙주를 못 찾은 상태입니다. 단, 제가 이곳저곳에서 본 기사로는 유행이 시작됐을 때 첫 발병자들이 상당 부분 원숭이하고 관련이 있었다는데 반드시 침팬지는 아니었습니다.

  ps. 유인원(primate)과 사람은 신체가 상당히 비슷하기 때문에, 이들에게 한정돼 있던
    병원체가 바로 사람에게 옮아올 가능성이 높습니다(그 역도 성립합니다).  이것도 진
    화론적 관계와 잘 일치하죠.
