Synopsis

The investigation into how Kimberly Bengalis contracted AIDS gathered worldwide attention when she accused her dentist - Dr David Acre - of giving her the fatal disease. Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) concluded that Acer did indeed infect at least six of his patients, many challenged the accuracy of the investigation. In this examination of the situation, Mark Rom poses a number of unanswered questions that surround the case. Was the CDC's investigation accurate? Was their final analysis swayed by political pressure, influenced by public hysteria and hindered by bureacratic red tape? And, if Acer did infect his patients, why isn't the CDC doing anything about it?
