Abstract


AIDS is a new disease, which came to light only in the year 1981 when it caused out Breaks in the USA. The origin of the virus has been the subject of much controversy, reminiscent of the situation 500 years ago, syphilis was first recognized. It has been suggested that the virus may have originated in Africa, perhaps from a simian. Immunodeficiency and spread to the USA probably through haity. In the permissive American Society of the 1970's the virus spread widely among male homosexuals and drug addicts, finally to come out into the open as outbreaks in 1981. HIV infection was detected rather late in India. The first cases having been found in female sex workers in Madras in 1986.
