This is exactly what gets me. If it did come from African's contact with monkeys (since that's the going theory), then wouldn't they have developed an immunity to it over the thousands of years that they have been living in the same place as them? Just like how Europeans eventually developed immunity to smallpox and other diseases after they started urbanizing and living in close contact with cows and pigs. The only thing I can think of is that as Africa becamse more urbanized in the last century they started getting the diseases in the same manner as Europe did centuries ago. But even then they didn't live with monkeys in the cities like Europe did with cows, so that theory doesn't hold up.
