HIV Monkeys

Procedures

1. Put both types of monkeys in one room, each in a separate cage on either side of the room

2. put the mosquito with the water in the other room with the water

3. Once a day release approximately 1/7 of the mosquitoes into the room for approximately 3/4 hours

4. Buy mosquito traps and try to catch most of the remaining mosquitoes

7. sedate the monkeys with a tranquilizer in their cages and move them(with two people carrying each one)

to a sterile table in the middle of the

room for testing

8. At the end of the seven days test your positive monkeys for HIV and if positive compare their symptoms to

other monkeys using the HIV testing kit

5. Go down to the cafeteria, get the food and Imediatlly feed and give water to the monkeys

6. Repeat steps 3-5 for 7 days

Results

Results and Conclusions

Our results were inconclusive due to the fact that we cannot determine weather or not the disease was passed between mosquitoes due to the facts that feces were thrown by the monkeys across the room, contact of human bodily fluids from an infected primate to a non infected one is a known transmitter of the disease

Conclusion

We cannot determine the conclusion of this experiment due to the fact that the results were inconclusive

Materials

100 primates (50 with HIV and 50 non HIV)

100 identical cages with metal bars spaces 10 centimeters apart

water and feed bowls

400 female mosquitoes in water capable of laying viable eggs

grade A primates food “food chow”served daily at our cafeteria

water

100 HIV tests (capable of detecting HIV instantaneously

10 mosquito traps

Hypothesis

Mosquitoes can carry the diseases from HIV positive to HIV negative monkeys because mosquitoes are a known transmitter of many diseases and past results would come to reason that they would translate the disease
