CDC says: Gay Men are 2% of the Population but 55% of HIV Cases, 67% of New Cases


Constitution reports on the scientific work of the CDC:
Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men made up an estimated 2% of the population but 55% of people living with HIV in the United States in 2013. If current diagnosis rates continue, 1 in 6 gay and bisexual men will be diagnosed with HIV in their lifetime, including 1 in 2 black/African-American gay and bisexual men, 1 in 4 Hispanic/Latino gay and bisexual men, and 1 in 11 white gay and bisexual men.
Are you a science denier? Anyway, no word yet from progressives on how heterosexuals should check their lack of HIV privilege at the door/blood bank.
