25 years ago

The first case of HIV/AIDS was diagnosed, although they weren't sure what they were dealing with at the time. The first actual known case of AIDS is of someone who died in Africa in 1959. But 1981 was the first recognition of a disease that has killed over 25 million people since it came on the scene.
