The HIV virus is a mutation of a similar immunodeficiency virus that has been traced to various money species in central Africa. At some point, it became transmittable to humans, with the most common explanation being an infected monkey bit a human.
While it could theoretically have been genetically engineered using modern technology, it's origins several decades ago make it much more likely to be a natural mutation that jumped primate species. Remember that humans (coincidentally, of course) share over 90% DNA similarity with many monkey species.
AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. It's what happens when HIV becomes active enough to shut down most of a person's immune system. The person is then susceptible to a host of other infections, which is what usually results in their death.

It's a mutation of a flu virus, but instead of attacking the lungs, it attacks T-4, white blood cells. Humans do not know how to create life.

The AIDS virus began in Africa. It was originally called "Green Monkey Virus". It's believed to have occurred due to anal intercourse between black African males and the African Green monkey.

It first appeared in apes in central Africa and spread to humans there. Search it up online, it's really interesting. You can find it all over the web.
Interesting is that the apes that carry the virus are immuned to it...

I think they traced it back to Africa . I read somewhere that they found a strain of it in apes but not as deadly .
