Alright, keep in mind that AIDs cases and deaths start off as HIV. You won't die of HIV. only when it develops into the AIDs virus then do you die. Though a gay community may have more cases of HIV than a black community, The black community has a higher mortality rate. White homosexuals, when contracting HIV, self-Advocate for themselves. Black would rather die than disclose their disease. also keep in mind the economic gap between whites and blacks.
Homosexuals are the most economiclly advantaged group in the U.S. 21% of homosexual households make greater than $100,000 per year while 28% make between $100,000 to $50,000 per year. The homosexual population makes more than the latino and african-American comunities combined and they only account for %10 percent of the U.S. population.
The average AIDs patient take a combination a medicines that add up to $14,000 per year. Persons in the advanced stages pay anywhere from $20,000- $27,000 per year.
The average national income is $42,000. the black community averages $11,500 less than the national average. that's $30,00 per year. I doubt they'll be recieving AIDs/HIV treatments.
