How did AIDS generate losses? And what are the methods to compensate for them?

Otherwise productive people becoming too ill to work, and eventually dying, is a loss, isn't it? Likewise the amount spent on medical treatment for those people is a net loss, even if it's profitable for the medical industry - see Bastiat's Broken Window fallacy: https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/08/broken-window-fallacy.asp
The amounts spent on public education in order to reduce the spread of AIDS is a loss. Even the amount spent on condoms in order to practice safe sex is a loss.
