How did Michel Foucault die?

Michel Foucault passed away in 1984 at the age of 57 from complications related to AIDS. His death was one of the early high-profile cases of AIDS in France, which brought additional attention to the disease during a time when understanding and treatment were still in the early stages. Foucault's partner, Daniel Defert, became an active campaigner for AIDS-related causes following Foucault's death.
