quote:I remember the fear while growing up in the 80’s. Everyone of us heard the lipstick story “welcome to the wonderful world of aids”. It eventually (during the mid 80- later 80’s) transitioned to acceptance of people with aids. There were after school specials and TV movies dedicated to to it.
But I don't believe AIDs put the same fear in people as the atomic bomb or COVID because only a small percentage of people were scared of AIDs.
Crack cocaine was the next big scare.

The story about the dentist really did make him look bad and I can see why people were freaking out about it honestly.
