AIDs theoretically developed in West Africa in the late 19th or early 20th century. With a logistical cap of the early 20th century, what if AIDs was discovered at some point between said time and the 19th century? What effect would such a discovery have on the cultural context (not just sexuality, but religion and societal issue beyond that)? Similarly, what effect would such a discovery have on the spread of the disease and development of ways of treating and perhaps eventually curing it?
