HIV Infection Study

H.I.V is now being spread all over the United States faster than people had believed before. The only thing is that only certain types of people seem to be getting it. Most new infections of white gay and bisexual men occur when the men are in their 30’s and 40’s, while black gay and bisexual men are more likely to be infected in their teens and 20’s. Scientists are publishing data facts and articles online because they want to find a way to prevent this continuously spreading faster and faster. 63% of black bisexual men and 81% of white bisexual men are newly becoming infected. I found this article interesting because why is it that certain types of people are only receiving it, mostly males. I also find it interesting that they are posting the results from the experiments scientists have taken online for everyone to see.
