Abstract

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was first recognized in Los Angeles and New York in 1981 when outbreaks of what was then called Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP; now called pneumocystis pneumonia) and Kaposi’s sarcoma were observed in previously healthy young men. Before this date, both conditions were very rare and restricted almost exclusively to immunocompromised patients. Epidemiologic data collected at the time suggested that a single blood- and semen-borne virus had predisposed these patients to infection, but it was not until several years after this outbreak that Barré-Sinoussi and associates in Paris and Gallo and associates in the United States independently isolated what was later termed the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), now known to be the cause of AIDS.
