oh yikes, a later paper by the very same stephen o'brien seems to disprove the plague/delta 32 theory, though HIV resistance is still accepted. google: Sabeti Walsh Schaffner Varilly Fry (2005) The Case for Selection at CCR5-Δ32

AIDS is our modern day plague. However, unlike the black death there seems to be no end in sight.

@WinterHaven: You PRAY for such an outcome? What kind of monster are you?

[WinterHaven]

I pray that HIV will mutate and become deadlier and resistant to ALL treatments.
