Despite the lack of a cure or a vaccine, today's HIV prevention tools, including HIV testing, prompt and sustained treatment, preexposure prophylaxis, and comprehensive syringe service programs, provide an opportunity to substantially decrease new HIV infections," the CDC stated. It recommended "intensifying efforts to implement these strategies equitably" to continue reducing transmission, illnesses and deaths.


quote:

The study found that different minority groups actually saw increases of new yearly HIV cases during the study period. Despite Black people making up 12% of the U.S. population, they accounted for 41% of new HIV infections in 2019, up from 29% of infections in 1981. Hispanic people also make up an increasing proportion of HIV infections, from the 16% reported in 1981 to 29% in 2019, while they representing 17% of the country's population. 

Another recent report from the CDC found that about 4 in 10 transgender women surveyed in seven major U.S. cities have HIV.

Barriers such as poverty, systemic racism and discrimination may be driving such health disparities by affecting access to treatment, testing and prevention services, the study stated.

Yes, that’s the reason. That’s always the reason.

It's all likely needle use. I don't know why the trans community has such a high rate, probably sexual but I know the left will blame "society" for these things because they don't want to point out the obvious.

Right. Absolutely has nothing at all to do with personal responsibility. Always someone else to blame.

Probably anal sex.

That’s why it was so prevalent among homosexuals. And why it was so rare among heterosexuals.
