Studies of old blood specimens have shown that people died of HIV as far back as the late 1950s. At the time, the disease was not identified as the cause. In 1981, when US homosexuals were infected in large numbers, the epidemic officially began. Once doctors knew what they were dealing with, they were able to identify HIV in cases across the world including Africa, Europe, and Asia.
