In the movie forrest gump wat "virus" did Jenny have?


not sure i think it was AIDS, and if im right does this mean lil forrest also has AIDS?

The virus is never identified in the movie. Several speculate AIDS, however, there are several viruses that could be fatal that may have been contracted through Jenny's lifestyle.

Someone said in another question, that the Director's commentary on the DVD states Jenny died of AIDS. Report It

AIDS

Yes AIDS, and not necessarily. Babies don't always get it from mom. Or maybe she got it after she had him.

It was AIDS you are correct.

HIV

im not sure but i think lil forrest doesnt have AIDS.

All signs pointed to aids. Aids is not always passed onto the child especially if the parent is on therapy - she also could have contacted it post delivery.

HIV is the answer.... and no Forrest Jr. did not have it... even if the mother have the virus does not mean that the baby has it...

yes it was Aids...

i thought it was cancer.

The movie never revealed, but if I had to guess, I would say AIDS also. Forest may or may not have contracted it. They only had sex once, but that doesn't mean he didn't contract it.

When forrest got her letter wasn't he watching Reagan getting shot on the news? Doesn't that make it about '81 or '82? When was the first recorded AIDS case? Pretty sure we didn't have the word AIDS back then. I know they never said it was AIDS in the movie. I vote for hepatitis b.

It was very likely that it was HIV, with Jenny later dying from AIDS. It is an open question whether Forrest caught the virus from her as well.

Your Right Its AIDS.

yeah its aids
