It's been almost 38 years since the Center for Disease Control published a report of rare cancer found in gay men called Kaposi Sarcoma. Throughout the 80s and 90s, 1,000s of AIDS patients and gay people died. Nowadays AIDS as a crisis is gone and recently there were reports that found a second HIV patient fully cured of HIV.
