Description: Was the global AIDS epidemic caused by scientists? The Origins of AIDS takes us to the former Belgian Congo to investigate this controversial claim put forward by journalist Edward Hooper. In his book, The River: Journey to the Source of AIDS, he links the onset of AIDS to a mass polio vaccination in the 1950's when nearly a million Africans were injected with an experimental vaccine derived from monkey organs. While experts agree that AIDS was born from human exposure to a chimpanzee virus, most dismiss the link to the polio vaccine. However, with testimony from scientists and others who worked in the '50's polio labs, the film makes a strong case for Hooper's hypothesis. |
