Way back in 1978 or 79, a friend showed me a newspaper article in the Detroit News or Free Press (they weren't combined back then). It was the science section front page with the title, "Killer Cell" and a drawing of a virus (like used during the pandemic). The article described a recently developed biological weapon that attacked the human immune system allowing opportunistic diseases to take over. It said that it attacked the "killer T-Cell" hence the title.
I doubt that article exists now unless someone had the forethought to save it as a few years later AIDS showed up in IV drug users and homosexuals. Searching microfilm is probably a bust and would require a search of the warm weather months during 78 and 79. I suspect this article was entirely scrubbed back in the 80s.
It may be possible that an image of that article exists and that a search could bring it up, but it costs money for membership to scour the data bases at the Detroit library and the online newspaper archives. I'd recognize an image of that page if I saw it. I tried it just now, maybe I can bring it up and get a copy, it would take awhile though.
