While we have seen decreases among some populations, we continue to see rising HIV new infections among same-gender-loving men. Sixty-three percent of the approximately 50,000 new infections annually are among same-gender-loving men of all races and ethnicities, disproportionately among young gay men, especially blacks and Latinos. We also see geographic disparities when we look toward the South. According to CDC data, nearly half of the 16 states in the Southern U.S. as well as the District of Columbia had higher- than-national-average estimated rates (per 100,000 population) of stage 3 (AIDS) classifications for persons with HIV in 2011.
