Summary/Abstract: The article is part of a broad essay tackling an issue that has turned from a medical one into a political issue. AIDS has become an instrument of dividing society into ‘us’ and ‘them’, the normal, heterosexual people vs. the promiscuous homosexuals. Its origins and the first known cases are mentioned here, as well as the way in which it turned into a political issue in Britain.
