Half of Gay Black Men Are Projected to Get HIV
February 23, 2016 — 12:00 PM EST
If you’re a white American woman, your risk of being diagnosed with HIV is pretty small, lower than the odds of dying in a car crash. If you’re a gay black man, the chances of getting an HIV diagnosis are closer to a coin flip.
About 43 percent of black men who have sex with men will be diagnosed with HIV in their lifetimes if the epidemic’s current trends hold, according to research being presented on Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control. For Hispanic men who have sex with men, the rate is 22 percent. For white men who have sex with men, it’s about 10 percent.
The latest report is a staggering reminder that gay men of color bear the brunt of the HIV crisis. That fact has been evident for years in the data on HIV, but it has often gone unmentioned as public health campaigns focus on broad-based prevention strategies.
“You see this community that is at far higher risk for HIV infection, but there almost seems to be a concerted effort not to talk about it,†said Greg Millett, vice president and director of Public Policy at AmfAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research. Millett, who wasn’t involved in the research, worked at the CDC until 2014 and helped craft President Obama’s National HIV/AIDS Strategy.
Here’s a look at the lifetime risk of getting HIV for different demographic groups, according to CDC data being presented at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Boston.

At which point he will blame "righty" (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027633164)
No replies yet - sure to be awesome, including a few claims that HIV was cooked up in a lab to kill gays and black people.

Gee and why is that Randy?
Maybe because if you live like ****ing animals you will die like you were in a jungle?

43% can be lowered to almost 0% by one simple lifestyle change...stop having sex with gay men.

1. Even in poor communities gay men must know that condems can stop the spread? Or is there
something else I'm not seeing?
The main point. It's all:
A). Whitey's fault.
B). Righty's fault.
C). Capitalism's fault.
D). Reagan's fault.
E). All of the above.
Take your pick, (D)Ummie. There is no wrong answer at the Romper Room, save one.
Personal responsibility.

So, viruses are now racists too?
This is akin to that "Environmental Racism" phenomenon ( :lmao: ) bandied about on DU a couple of weeks ago.
The DU loons have their "cause and effect" confused...AGAIN

No mention of anal ruptures across the spectrum of fruitiness? There should be a public awareness push. The billboards would be hilarious

Scene: Two black homosexuals in a bar
#1: "Hey, brother, can I push up your stool?"
#2: "I thought you'd never ask!"
James Earl Jones, off-camera: "Don't be like that, brother."
Homos look around to find the source of James Earl Jones' voice.
James Earl Jones: "That is the wrong way to use your..."
Female backup singers: "Shaft!"
Isaac Hayes: "Daaaaamn right."
Two homos, in unison: "Then we can dig it!"
Homos give each other high-five, turn to talk to women.
James Earl Jones winks at the camera.

3. Couple things: Black men are much more likely to be in jail
at some point in their lives, than non-black men, which - studies show - is an arena where same-sex sexual activity is commonplace.
Second thing is, in general, if we had single-payer health care, I imagine highly effective PrEP therapies like Truvada would be doing much more as HIV-preventative tools than they do now, since, duh, it's expensive even for affluent people.
What part of don`t drive your dick up a queers hershey highway is difficult to understand?

White American women are privileged. Liberals will have to even things up somehow.

At which point he will blame "righty"
Randys1 will identify as hiv positive, as a symbolic gesture to his gay brothers, in effect attempting to double triple down on victimhood.
Outside of that, he'll never give it another thought.

HHS: Immigrants with HIV, STDs welcome
The administration has decided to let immigrants with three sexually transmitted diseases known for causing sores or lesions on genitalia to enter the United States, an expansion of a previous decision to let in those with HIV.
The Department of Health and Human Services this month opened the borders to those with the STDs, deeming the communicable diseases not a big threat to the United States.
A report from the Center for Immigration Studies said that HHS does not believe that the costs to taxpayers to handle the immigrants with STDs will be significant.
Now, said the Center, the list of inadmissible communicable diseases only includes syphilis, gonorrhea, tuberculosis, and leprosy.
We have already seen illegals coming in with the so-called inadmissible diseases. Obama wants to destroy this country and is trying an all fronts attack.

You forgot to blame EEEEVIL Christians who don't completely abandon their convictions and openly accept and celebrate homosexuality.

Beat me to it. I think you see that one coming from Neo Nazis and black radicals as in, Joos created HIV to kill black africans. Although I think the Neo Nazeeez' angle is that HIV treatment and medicine benefits Jewish doctors or something...I dunno, if you google Jews created AIDS a couple Nazi sites come up but I'm not clicking on that shite.
