Institutionalized racism affects general health care as well as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) health intervention and services in minority communities. The overrepresentation of minorities in various disease categories, including AIDS, is partially related to racism. The national response to the AIDS epidemic in minority communities has been slow, showing an insensitivity to ethnic diversity in prevention efforts and AIDS health services.
制度化种族主义影响着普通医疗保健以及少数族裔社区的获得性免疫缺陷综合征(艾滋病)健康干预和服务。少数族裔在包括艾滋病在内的各种疾病类别中所占比例过高,部分原因与种族主义有关。国家对少数族裔社区艾滋病疫情的应对一直很缓慢,在预防工作和艾滋病健康服务中对种族多样性缺乏敏感性。
