 AB    The HIV/AIDS epidemic has caught millions of people in its path
       worldwide during the first 13 years since it surfaced; half a million
       Americans have been diagnosed with AIDS, and hundreds of thousands more
       are in earlier stages of HIV disease. Yet the sense of urgency one would
       expect should attend such awful numbers is strangely absent, prompting
       the bitter query Whatever happened to AIDS? This paper discusses the
       present status of progress with respect to the epidemic and explores
       some of the reasons that might partially explain both the inherent
       difficulties of research and the inappropriate public sense of
       quiescence. It then puts forward some suggested areas of research
       endeavor and/or public policy that could re-energize the flagging public
       response to this massive health disaster.
