@HbdNrx @IWFBuckley@ThomasHCrown@BBCWorld :It was a vaccine that was just being replicated in an outreach. The Dr was interviewed abt it. -
@Usama_Backhair @IWFBuckley@ThomasHCrown The vaccine wasn't around in the 1920s -

@Usama_Backhair @IWFBuckley@ThomasHCrown HIV came about somewhere in the Congo in the 1920s or before. -
