Epilogue: lessons learned.It is now thirty years since the discovery of AIDS but its origins continue to puzzle doctors and scientists. Inspired by his own experiences working as an infectious diseases physician in Africa, Jacques Pepin looks back to the early twentieth-century events in Africa that triggered the emergence of HIV/AIDS and traces its subsequent development into the most dramatic and destructive epidemic of modern times. He shows how the disease was first transmitted from chimpanzees to man and then how urbanization, prostitution, and large-scale colonial medical campaigns intended to eradicate tropical diseases combined to disastrous effect to fuel the spread of the virus from its origins in Léopoldville to the rest of Africa, the Caribbean and ultimately worldwide. This is an essential new perspective on HIV/AIDS and on the lessons that must be learnt if we are to avoid provoking another pandemic in the future.HIV infectionsAfricaHIV infectionsEtiologyAIDS (Disease)AfricaEmerging infectious diseasesAfricaHIV infectionsHIV infectionsEtiology.AIDS (Disease)Emerging infectious diseases362.196/97920096Pepin Jacques1958-1047546UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910458025703321The origins of AIDS2475159UNINA01970nam0 22002531i 450 UON0039645620231205104637.7720110727f1672 |0itac50 balatIT||||||||| |||||||||Bibliotheca Hispana sive Hispanorum, qui usquam unquamve sive Latina sive populari sive alia quavis lingua scripto aliquid consignaverunt notitia, his quae praecesserunt locupletior et certior brevia elogia, editorum atque ineditorum operum catalogum duabus partibus continens, quarum haec ordine quidem rei posterior, conceptu vero prior duobus tomis de his agit, qui post annum secularem 1500. usque ad praesentem diem floruere.
