It's one of the
world's great detective stories: the hunt for the
cause of AIDS - the worst plague since the Black
Death. One of the strongest theories is that an
experimental polio vaccine involving monkeys in
central Africa led to the virus being passed on from
animals to humans. Recently the two main
protagonists in this debate met face-to-face for the
first time. Dr Hilary Koprowski, the man who headed
the vaccination programme in Africa in the 1950's &
Ed Hooper, a journalist who after 9 years of
investigation says that Koprowski's vaccination was
responsible for AIDS. We speak with both men. |
