This information sheet discusses HIV/AIDS among African American youth in the United States. It explains that African American youth are severely affected by HIV. About 57 percent of new infections are among 13 to 29-year-old African American youths. The rate of infection among young black men is higher than that for any other race/ethnicity, and three quarters of the new infections are among young black gay/bisexual men. Also, young black women are far more affected by HIV than young women of other races.
This infographic, in the form of an information sheet, highlights the impact, causes, and consequences of STDs among young people – and what they can do to protect themselves. While STDs affect individuals of all ages, STDs take a particularly heavy toll on young people. CDC estimates that youth ages 15-24 make up just more than 25 percent of the sexually active population, but account for half of the 20 million new STIs that occur in the United States each year. The infographic provides statistics on gonorrhea, chlamydia, HPV, genital herpes, HIV, and syphilis.
