Both of these are from p. D1
o) The CDC has confirmed two more cases of AIDS infections from patients
treated by Dr. David Acer.
o) A government blueprint presented by Surgen General Novello is
summarized. One interesting statement is that "the greatest
increases in AIDS are now seen in towns under 100'000 population..."

I also noticed this article and this confirms my suspicions from day 1 that Dr. Acer was doing something wrong in his infection control techniques at his office. Of the number of contacts per day between HIV infected patients and various doctors, you would expect many doctors becoming HIV infected but I don't see this happening. I really wish that CDC would start discussing the possibility that Dr. Acer was lax, instead this open ended announcements give more credence to uninformed individuals that AIDS can be transmitted through proper infection control barriers.
