First sentence: Since physicians Linda Laubenstein and Kenneth Hymes first reported the occurrence of a rare cancer-Kaposi's sarcoma-affecting gay men in New York City in 1979 and the subsequent identification of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in 1984, HIV infection has continued to spread rapidly in the United States and throughout the world.
