April 24, 1980 San Francisco resident Ken Horne is reported to the Center for Disease Control with Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS). Later in 1981, the CDC would retroactively identify him as the first patient of the AIDS epidemic in the US.
As has been said in the first months of Coronavirus quarantines and public panic, for many This is Not Our First Pandemic.
