#2 Aids
AIDS caused a frenzy in 1981, when the first cases hit the news waves. An autoimmune disease that affects the lungs is still the 6th leading cause of death in people aged 25 to 44 in the United States. Passed through bodily fluids into the blood stream, typically through sexual contact, and also through blood transfusions, the disease was first thought to only have affected gay men and was thought of as a "gay disease."
