On the early dynamics and spread of HIV-1
Abstract
Until recently, the origin of the HIV-1 group M pandemic largely remained a scientific mystery. The use of comprehensive evolutionary analyses has revealed a unique story regarding viral migration, starting in the 1920s in Kinshasa, and the social and infrastructural changes associated with the early spread of this deadly virus.
Keywords: HIV; epidemiology; evolution; phylogeography.
