Kimberly Bergalis. Kimberly Ann Bergalis (January 19, 1968 â December 8, 1991) was an American woman who was one of six patients purportedly infected with HIV by dentist David J. Acer, who had the disease AIDS. This incident is the first known case of clinical transmission of HIV.
The doctor, Lou Nishimura, a Sacramento internist, said Monday that Miss Blake, who died at age 60 on Aug. 16, did have throat cancer. But he added, ''That wasn't the reason that she died.'' Dr. Nishimura spoke after a report by television station KRBK in Sacramento, where Miss Blake was a longtime resident, quoted her friends as saying now that her death was related to AIDS.
