ROFL! what it really means is that the polio
virus/vaccine was cultured on monkey kidney tissue.
it's a difficult thing to grow, so you can't just use
a regular petri dish with agar (seaweed gelatin, which
is what is used to grow many types of bacteria). if
that monkey kidney tissue was contaminated with the
simian immunovirus, then those who received the test
polio vax would have been inoculated also with the
SIV... thus the theory.

but I think your explanation is much more fun, Sandra!
