Chimpanzees Or Gorillas-What Is The Difference?

Chimpanzees Or Gorillas-What Is The Difference?
New HIV Strain Discovered in Woman:
If we assume that this finding is REAL and TRUE. Then the next question is.
* Did this new HIV transmission occur via Blood or Inhalation?
Because as far as I am aware, HIV is transmitted via Body Fluids, or HIV contaminated Blood Transfusions.
And if we could accept that this new HIV associated strain supposedly contracted by some Gorilla or Chimpanzee, then it had to be of a SEXUAL nature. And that leads to the speculation that some Male or Female may have had some sexual encounter with a Chimp or a Gorilla!
Until the SPECIFIC mode of transmission of this new HIV strain is determined. I refuse to accept this new finding or speculation/s.

reporter and barnyjr were among the readers alerting us to the discovery of a new strain of the
HIV virus, found in a woman from the west central African nation of Cameroon.
"It differs from the three known strains of human immunodeficiency virus and appears to be closely related to a form of simian virus recently discovered in wild gorillas, researchers report in Monday's edition of the journal Nature Medicine. ...
The most likely explanation for the new find is gorilla-to-human transmission, Plantier's team said. But... they cannot rule out the possibility that the new strain started in chimpanzees and moved into gorillas and then humans, or moved directly from chimpanzees to both gorillas and humans. ...
Researchers said it could be circulating unnoticed in Cameroon or elsewhere. The virus's rapid replication indicates that it is adapted to human cells, the researchers reported."

I hope that the suggestion that humans are dating chimps or gorillaz was actually discussed as this idea is just dumb. Regarding the origin of the HIV virus in humans, please look at this documentary titled "the origin of aids" link below, and also read a book called "the river" on this topic. http://freedocumentaries.org/int.php?filmID=123
