Early on they figured out that the riskiest behaviour were receptive anal sex (respectively, oral-anal, manual-anal and sexual-anal). There's a reason AIDS was first discovered in San Francisco and not Hamburg or Madrid.
They also figured out that it was affecting drug addicts (who shared needles with sodomites).
But they ran campaigns pretending that young heterosexual people were at risk, because they did not want to offend anyone. So Chad and Stacy, 15, were covering up while degenerates were still happily inserting their hands and tongues into each others anuses in San Francisco.
Later on they also lied in Africa, where somehow they got good progress with tuberculosis and other diseases, but oh no looks like AIDS is here and we need even more funding. And as the other diseases somehow improved (despite being more contagious), the epidemic of AIDS progressed. Exactly like flu and the Cohen.
