A good encyclopedia makes a great starting point. In this case you can use it the to look up texts at various schools (although unfortunately that book doesn't appear to be online). None seem to suggest he played any role in discovering that some diseases, as opposed to microorganisms, fail to arise spontaneously.

In any case, to the original point: you cannot contract AIDS from thin air or a toilet seat: you must have contact with someone who already carries the HIV virus. That is the point I am trying to make with respect to your original flame at Kami: whatever she does isn’t going to cause AIDS unless she does it with someone who has HIV.

(I’m not arguing over other health risks, just the one you stated)
