What is the percentage of hiv positive african americans in the united states?


what is percentage in other ethnic groups in U.S.A.

ALSO

JUST CDC FIGURES

Caucasians made up 40.6% of all US cases in 2005

Of those 16.0% were heterosexuals

That means just 6.4% of all cases were Caucasian Heterosexuals.

Of those 18.567% were female or about 1% of the total.

To do the maths for yourself go to: -

last i heard the rate per capita is about 5 times higher for blacks and hispanics (dont know if thats still true) than it is for whites, i dont know the acutal percentage, www.cdc.gov probably has a lot of data on it

The CDC Will have this answer for you but keep in mind that the statistics for African Americans will be higher than other races because many of them don't get tested as they usually feel they are not at risk. i.e middle income to higher income Caucasians ..... HIV is not gender nor race specific. The H stands for human not poor, rich, black, white Hispanic etc....
