In 2021, there were an estimated 153 500 persons aged at least 13 years with undiagnosed HIV infection. Estimated rates among Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, and White persons were used to assess disparity trends from 2017 to 2021. Rates decreased across two absolute and relative disparity measures. Despite these declines, Black and Hispanic persons had rates 8.3 and 4.2 times the rate of White persons in 2021. Increased testing and innovative efforts are needed to address HIV-related disparities.
2021 年,估计有至少 153500 名年龄在 13 岁及以上的人患有未确诊的 HIV 感染。使用黑/非裔美国人、西班牙裔/拉丁裔和白人的估计比率来评估 2017 年至 2021 年的差异趋势。两个绝对和相对差异指标的比率都有所下降。尽管有所下降,但黑人及西班牙裔人士的比率仍为白人的 8.3 倍和 4.2 倍。需要增加检测和创新努力,以解决与 HIV 相关的差异。
