An issue brief published on Tuesday by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control claimed that that Southerners’ “racism,” and “homophobia” may be causing high HIV rates in the South that are disproportionately high among African-Americans and homosexuals.
According to the issue brief, Southern states have 37 percent of the U.S. population and 44 percent of all HIV infected people living in America. HIV rates among gay men and African-Americans account for the lion’s share of those infected with HIV.
“African Americans are severely affected by HIV in the South, accounting for 54 percent of new HIV diagnoses in 2014,” the brief notes.
The majority of those diagnoses were among black gay men, the CDC reports: “Black gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) face an especially heavy burden, accounting for 59 percent of all HIV diagnoses among African Americans in the South.”

Obunghole is throwing a hissy-fit because Congress won’t give him $2B to fight mosquitoes. Why? Because they spread a virus?
Why can’t we consider the feeeeeelings of gay minority mosquitos before embarking on this racist homophobic insectophobic program?
And the band played on...
The high rate of HIV among AA’s is prison. They conduct homosexuality in prison and then get out with HIV and spread it to a bunch of baby mamas. This was established in a study a few years ago. This has been going on for a long time and it only gets worse.
Don’t forget islamophobia, isolationism and climate change!
And sexism!
His first year is going to be consumed with weeding out the fifth columns that have been planted throughout the Federal bureaucracy under Obama. Each agency is going to need a special task force charged with this high-priority task.
I thought it was because of global warming
This has been reported in the news for years. The reason that Black gay men have such alarming rates of HIV is for in addition to the obvious reasons because they actively seek it out. They figure once they have it they don’t have to worry about it. Strange ignorant destructive cultish behavior.
I think it is much more than 10%. I bet over half have several hundred in their lives. Over half of them are affected with microorganisms.
It will be interesting to see what happens to the Zika virus after the Olympics.
Atlanta and Miami are hotbeds for homosexuals and are in the south...
paging Captain oblivious...
Not that it really matters. If Aids and HIV were out of the picture, it would but make a small dent in the grand scheme of things as far as the health of poofters..... it’s the act itself that is that dangerously unhealthy.
Homosexuality is a mental illness, one that causes them to seek risky sexual encounters like sodomy with strangers.
The propaganda is so thick in this country now it’s astounding. Goebbels was a piker by comparison.
Gotta blame somebody I guess. Same old, tire commie BS.
If they didn’t engage in homosexual behavior, they wouldn’t have aids. The lies they tell are just astounding.
AIDS is the only disease in the world caused solely by behavior.
Wrong. Their BEHAVIOR is the cause of their elevated HIV rate. It has nothing to do with how others accept, reject or ignore them.
(Just being absurd to show how absurd this idea is)
