Abstract
The disease now known as the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS, was first reported 20 years ago this week in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report under the quiet title “Pneumocystis pneumonia — Los Angeles.”1 The description was not the lead article; that distinction went to a report of dengue infections in vacationers returning to the United States from the Caribbean.Keywords
