Indeed, and to deny this, which is due to culture, not color, is racist, since it is motivated by racial bias, in which blame is shifted away from (American) culture to race (see CULTURE, NOT COLOR: Spiritual declension and liberal corruption of the American black family in particular and its correlation to behavioral problems)
While racial bias is also charged as neglecting blacks yet if more testing took place among that community then the following stats would be worse.
In 2016, "Gay and bisexual men continue to be most affected by the HIV epidemic in the U.S. At current rates, 1 in 6 MSM will be diagnosed with HIV in their lifetime, including 1 in 2 black MSM, 1 in 4 Latino MSM, and 1 in 11 white MSM." (https://www.hiv.gov/blog/half-of-black-gay-men-and-a-quarter-of-latino-gay-men-projected-to-be-diagnosed-within-their-lifetime/)
The rate of Black females living with an HIV diagnosis is 17.6 times that of White females. The rate of Hispanic/Latino males living with an HIV diagnosis is 2.5 times that of White males. The rate of Hispanic/Latina females living with an HIV diagnosis is 4.2 times that of White females. (https://aidsvu.org/local-data/united-states)
In 2019, among all Black/African American persons, males accounted for 76% of HIV infections, most of which (82%) were attributed to male-to-male sexual contact. (https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/pdf/library/reports/surveillance/cdc-hiv-surveillance-supplemental-report-vol-26-1.pdf P. 6)
By race/ethnicity, in 2021 Black/African American individuals accounted for 40% (13,000) of the estimated 32,100 new HIV infections,Hispanic/Latino individuals accounted for 29% (9,300) of new HIV infections, and White individuals accounted for 26% (8,200) of new HIV infections.In 2021, the highest rates of new HIV infections were among Black/African American persons (37.3),Hispanic/Latino persons (18.9), and persons of multiple races (17.0).According to CDC, in 2021, Black/African American persons made up approximately 12% of the population of the United States but accounted for 40% of new HIV infections.White persons made up 61% of the population of the United States but accounted for 26% of new HIV infections, and Hispanic/Latino persons made up 18% of the population of the United States but accounted for 29% of HIV infections.Black/African American females accounted for 54% of new HIV diagnoses among people assigned female sex at birth. White females aged ≥ 13 years accounted for 23% of diagnoses among people assigned female sex at birth. Hispanic/Latino females aged ≥ 13 years accounted for 18% of diagnoses among people assigned female sex at birth. (https://www.hiv.gov/hiv-basics/overview/data-and-trends/statistics/)
Asian female adults and adolescents had the largest percentage (93%) of diagnoses of HIV infection attributed to heterosexual contact, followed by Black/African American (91%), and Hispanic/Latino (87%) female adults and adolescents. In 2019, Black/African American children made up approximately 14% of the population of children but accounted for 57% of diagnoses of HIV infection among children.
