![Slide 1. AIDS Cases among Minority Races/Ethnicities 1985–2006—United States and Dependent Areas
The number of AIDS cases increased each year from 1985 through 1993. The 1993 expansion of the AIDS case definition resulted in an increase in the number of AIDS cases reported. In 1996, the introduction and widespread use of antiretroviral therapies, which slow the progression of HIV infection to AIDS, resulted in declines in AIDS incidence.
In 2006, an estimated 26,515 AIDS cases were diagnosed for persons of minority races/ethnicities, accounting for 70% of all AIDS cases diagnosed that year in the United States and dependent areas.](images/slide1.gif)

The proportional distribution of AIDS diagnoses among races/ethnicities has changed since the beginning of the epidemic. The proportion of AIDS diagnoses among whites (not Hispanic) has decreased; the proportions among non-Hispanic blacks and Hispanics have increased. The proportions of AIDS diagnoses among Asians/Pacific Islanders and American Indians/Alaska Natives have remained relatively constant, at approximately 1% of all diagnoses.
Of adults and adolescents diagnosed with AIDS during 2006, 48% were black (not Hispanic), 29% were white (not Hispanic), 20% were Hispanic, 1% were Asian/Pacific Islander, and less than 1% were American Indian/Alaska Native.](images/slide2.gif)

The pie chart on the left illustrates the distribution of AIDS cases reported in 2006 among races/ethnicities. The pie chart on the right shows the racial/ethnic distribution of the U.S. population (excluding U.S. dependent areas) in 2005.
Blacks (not Hispanic) and Hispanics are disproportionately affected by the AIDS epidemic in comparison with their proportional distribution in the general population.
In 2006, blacks (not Hispanic) made up 13% of the population but accounted for 49% of reported AIDS cases in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Hispanics made up 15% of the population but accounted for 19% of reported AIDS cases.
Whites (not Hispanic) made up 67% of the U.S. population but accounted for 30% of reported AIDS cases.

The distribution of risk factors for HIV infection differs by race/ethnicity. From 2002 through 2006, of white (not Hispanic) men with AIDS, 72% had been exposed through male-to-male sexual contact, and 11% had been exposed through injection drug use (IDU). These proportions were similar among Asian/Pacific Islander men. Of black (not Hispanic) men, 47% had been exposed through male-to-male sexual contact and 22% through IDU. Of Hispanic men, 54% had been exposed through male-to-male sexual contact and 22% through IDU. Of American Indian/Alaska Native men with AIDS, 57% had been exposed through male-to-male sexual contact, 17% through IDU, and an additional 15% were attributed to both male-to-male sexual contact and IDU.](images/slide6.gif)

From 2002 through 2006, of all female adults and adolescents with AIDS, 71% had been exposed to HIV infection through heterosexual contact with an HIV-infected male, an injection drug user, a bisexual male, a male with hemophilia, or a transfusion recipient with HIV infection; 27% had been exposed through injection drug use. These proportions were similar for black (not Hispanic) and Hispanic females.
In comparison with females of other races/ethnicities, a larger proportion of Asian/Pacific Islander females had been exposed through high-risk heterosexual contact (79%), and a smaller proportion had been exposed through injection drug use (16%). Proportional distributions were similar among American Indian/Alaska Native and white (not Hispanic) females, with larger proportions of females exposed through injection drug use, 41% and 46% respectively, compared to females of other races/ethnicities.](images/slide7.gif)

In 2006, 73% of reported AIDS cases were cases in males. The largest proportion of AIDS cases in men were blacks (not Hispanic), followed by those in whites (not Hispanic) and Hispanics.
Of females with AIDS, 64% were black (not Hispanic), and nearly equal numbers were white (not Hispanic) or Hispanic.
In comparison with AIDS cases among other races/ethnicities reported in 2006, relatively few AIDS cases were reported among Asians/Pacific Islanders and American Indians/Alaska Natives.](images/slide8.gif)

The next highest rates were those in New York and Florida. The high rate for the District of Columbia should be interpreted with caution because the other rates presented are for states, and the District of Columbia is a city. The rate for the District of Columbia should be compared with the rates for other cities rather than other states.](images/slide9.gif)

The rate for the United States—7.1 per 100,000—is, however, considerably lower than the rate of 68.7 for blacks or the rate of 24.0 for Hispanics. The high rate for the District of Columbia should be interpreted with caution because the other rates presented are for states, and the District of Columbia is a city.

Whites (not Hispanic) made up 69% of the population of the 33 states but accounted for 30% of HIV/AIDS diagnoses. Hispanics made up 13% of the population of the 33 states but accounted for 18% of HIV/AIDS diagnoses.
The following 33 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least 2003: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

This slide shows, by race/ethnicity, the case rates (per 100,000 population) for HIV/AIDS in male adults and adolescents residing in the 33 states with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting.
For male adults and adolescents, the rate (HIV/AIDS cases per 100,000) for blacks (not Hispanic) (119.1) was 7 times the rate for whites (not Hispanic) (16.7) and more than twice the rate for Hispanics (50.9).
Relatively few cases were diagnosed for Asian/Pacific Islander and American Indian/Alaska Native males, although the rate for American Indian/Alaska Native males (17.7) was higher than that for non-Hispanic white males.
