Except that during this time in the US, AIDS was a gay disease. It struck gays and IV drug users almost exclusively.

That's true. But it didn't remain this way for long.

And I don't see where blaming one group or another for a particular person's infection does much good.
It would be more accurate blaming a behavior, such as sexual promiscuity..which spreads AIDS among both gays and heteros.

So we don't repeat the same mistakes.

In America it is still a disease of the homos and drug injecters. It is very difficult to catch it from sex with a woman, relatively speaking.
