It took off fast. My first partner was the 7th person in this state to die from AIDS and that was in 1984.
It's not done yet. Africa is going to get worse. China too. Havent heard anything from India Bangladesh and places like that.

Yeah it's a relitively new STD, compared to most of them. Syphilis for example has been around since 1494.
