Conclusion after the study of AIDS/HIV

Entry # A2185184 or can be just an other essay to contemplate on.
AIDS/HIV brings up the connection between humans and animals.
Biological findings have classifications in the world of living creatures on Earth. According to this: The human belongs to the Family of Mammals.
Closest relative is the Chimpanzee.
But the human mammal developed on his hand such features that it is possible for him to make tools and is called: tool making animal. This makes the human very distinct from the apes, beside other development in the human brain.
Neurological findings are in the state of infancy in these days, and about the evolving human brain many questions are not answered yet.
Undoubtedly with the combination of the flexible human hand and more developed brain the human/animal can be a creator of unkown things and ideas, but also is the most destructive creature on Earth. Only NATURE can be more powerful.
By Nature's rules the very complex human organism has immense amount of problems to solve for his survival.
It is known fact that every problem has the correct solution, if you find them. So they say: " There is nothing new under the SUN" only we don't see them.
One of the most burning problems for humans is to combat the many diseases what this complicated organizm can get.
In the realm of the Univers the history and development of the human/animal is relatively short.
Long before apes and humans lived on Earth there were simple single cell micro-organizms all over living, multipiying and getting very strong perhaps for hundreds of thousands of years. And they just keep living and living refuse to die.
But the complex organizms are much more vulnerable and continuosely exposed to many forms of danger to be killed. Thousends of human illnesses are listed in a medical reference book in these days. However there are very effective medicins also available and some of the illnesses are extinct.
But than suddenly new, previousely unkown micro-organizms enter into the life of the human species to strik them down with fatal consequences after infection.
During the history of mankind there were devastating epidemics like the bubonic plague caused by a bacterium from a bite of a rat or flea carriing the micro-organizm. Today antibioticums and vaccinations can fight such contageus illness.
Mostly infectious illnesses are linked to originate in animals after contact with a human. Like the present time still unresolved problem of HIV seems to originate from african Monkeys. It seems while humans were hunting them the virus was passed on which is deadly for humans.
The recently emerged virus causing SARS is originated in South East Asia from poultry meat processing perhaps in contaminated fashion.
There is a very long way to find the causes of these illnesses.
The leading factor to deal with mankind devastating health problems is the Word Health Organization in Geneva, Schwitzerland. But beside this many many hundreds of Organizations are there with various programs to call the attention that animals can be dangereous to human health.
There are government and private organizations all over the world to deal with the human/animal problems.
Unfortunately many private organization present the problem on the level of " Animal Rights". Stirring up controversial arguments, ending up on the shorter end.
Those humans for example in the logging industry could not care less about the animals living in the forests. Those people who cut down the trees caring about their own hungry family providing for their immediate needs when selling the logs.
But how long can they do this? Humans multiply much faster than valuable trees would grow. The cleared land many times will not provide even a minimal amount of food to grow for the next generation.
Some scientist made such statement, that to curb the population expansion Nature does control with such diseases like these viruses!
Incredibly frightening statement!
The final conclusion of this study is:
Nature controls animal's reproductions by instinct. Many animal will not reproduce under unfavorable conditions. For example the Polar bear. And ofcourse the very sensitive creature: the Panda Bear!
No need to elaborate on such issues. Because it is not the presense of these animals what really counts, but everything else what goes with it like the forests which absorbs a lot of pollutions and provide cleaner air, provides control in humidity and tempereture flactuation. All today known deserts were covered with lush forests! There were no sand storms and unbearable heat from the sand, where not much can be grown. Only the Sahara is known as desert to begin with.
Finally about HIV:
the spreding of this diease could be cut immediately if every individual would cooperate and would not infect an other human anymore and naturally leave those animals alone which are the host for HIV and perhaps for other micro-organizms dangereous to humans.
Eventually there will be vaccine to give protection against HIV, but the answer to illnesses is not as much the cure, but THE PREVENTION.
