To put this entire issue to bed, BB, you are absolutely wrong- there was no aids scare, nor any Mystery disease scare whatsoever in the 70's.

In looking through the MMWR,link provided, you can find the answers.

The Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report is a CDC publication. I will let their words sum it up-
Often called “the voice of CDC,” the MMWR series is the agency’s primary vehicle for scientific publication of timely, reliable, authoritative, accurate, objective, and useful public health information and recommendations.

MMWR readership predominantly consists of physicians, nurses, public health practitioners, epidemiologists and other scientists, researchers, educators, and laboratorians.

The data in the weekly MMWR are provisional, based on weekly reports to CDC by state health departments. Inquiries regarding the MMWR series, including material to be considered for publication, should be directed to:
.....


Why is this relevant? Because this is the pipeline for mysterious diseases. EVERY doctor, EVERY nurse, EVERY member of the bolded and underlined professions above, the ENTIRE realm of health workers, They all know that this resource is ground zero for any new mysterious disease reporting.....
To NOT report a recognized cluster of ailments previously unknown to this publication is as large a sin as a police officer looking the other way when witnessing molestation of a child.

Anyone failing to do so after recognizing a pattern of disease or death would certainly never be welcome in the field again for showing GROSS irresponsibility.
It potentially could be the equivalent of unleashing a super virus on society to not report to the MMWR and in turn the CDC.

Even if someone was so grossly negligent as to fail to report a trending ilness, and pass it to the press instead, the MMWR and the CDC would jump on it IMMEDIATELY.



Now- you fully understand how disease reporting works.
If you dispute any of what i said, I would sure like to know why.


Since you understand how reporting new diseases work, lets follow that thread- from the words of the CDC itself,
1981
On June 5, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publish a Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), describing cases of a rare lung infection, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP), in five young, previously healthy, *** men in Los Angeles. All the men have other unusual infections as well, indicating that their immune systems are not working; two have already died by the time the report is published. This edition of the MMWR marks the first official reporting of what will become known as the AIDS epidemic.
On June 5, the Associated Press and the Los Angeles Times report on the MMWR. On June 6, the San Francisco Chronicle covers the story. Within days, doctors from across the U.S. flood CDC with reports of similar cases.


Very clearly, very concisely, the CDC states that the cases of the Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia reported to them in 1981 was the the first official mention of a disease and illness cluster that led to the discovery of AIDS.

Feel very free to consult the MMWR- the resource for disease discussion in the U.S. They themselves and the CDC literature disputes your claim of a 70's *** disease scare.


Until such a time as you uncover anything that disputes this information, I am sure you will agree- There was no AIDS scare in the 70's.
Perhaps like many of that era, the partying has clouded many things in the ol memory banks.


Summation- No aids scare in the 70's. It never happened.

through a post-1981 re-testing existing samples and medical records, Cases of HIV and AIDS were proven to have been in existance back in to the 60's and perhaps late 50's, but never was a pattern or a grouping of the virus even hinted at prior to the 1981 MMWR report.

We all know that all the bonking going on in the 70s left very few virgins for men to cleanse themselves of the scourge of AIDS.

To put this to bed airtime..ONCE AGAIN you are concentrating on what was established AFTER the CDC declared AIDS an epidemic...

As we both agree, the aids virus existed before the CDC recognized it as an epidemic, and to imply (as there are no records either way) that something that important wasn't reported in the media as well as talked about in bars and homes across america is just plain plain silly.

I myself heard news reports on the national news during that time and discussed the issue with friends and family.. Just because there are no records of such things, doesnt mean it didnt happen. I have been challenged to come up with some news reports from the mid 70's..They can't be found...I am living proof it was reported, and people discussed it

Case closed

Speaking of skanky chicks, the most famous groupie of all time is Connie made famous in the Grand Funk Railroad song American Band. Here she is. Statistically, this chick may have been with more men than any woman in the world

I let it go with this. It's a real shame a fun thread got derailed with fiction and name calling.
