dc.description.abstract"Understanding how, when and why the HIV-1 virus adapted to the human population and become pandemic is crucial to prevent its propagation and the establishment of other potential future viral pandemics. It is known that the HIV-1 group M epidemic started in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and soon spread across the Congo river to Brazzaville located in Republic of Congo (RC), and further to Lubumbashi and Mbuji-Mayi (DRC), around 1930s (~1937 [95% Bayesian Credible Interval: 1919-1957]). Angola borders and has long-term links with DRC and RC as well as high levels of HIV-1 genetic diversity 2. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of this country in the initial spread of the HIV-1 pandemic."pt_PT
