Is it possible for a monkey to get AIDS if it has bitten an AIDS infected person (malinda)

Response from Mr Munyaneza Gregory

HIV is a human virus. It is transmitted from one human being to another and never from human being to animal or vice versa. To conclude the monkey cannot get HIV therefore it cannot either get AIDS.
