In the early 1980s, doctors noticed that a large number of gay men were being diagnosed with rare infections and cancers. Further research revealed that these conditions were due to a weakened immune system, which was later linked to a new virus, which came to be known as HIV. This led to increased scientific awareness of the virus in the U.S. and eventually the rest of the world.
