As an AA woman I was compelled to answer, It's not just African American women who get Aids, but I will say that a fastest growing number of new cases are from black women. There is a variety of reasons of why infection is increasing: She could be born with it, drug use, or sleeping with a man (who has slept with infected men, or infected women).

There are other scenerios, but most of the time it's from heterosexual relations. It scares me, because the statistics we have are from people who get tested, and in general women are more likely to get tested than men.

So what ever race you are or gender, you need to protect yourselves and don't do drugs, and get tested.
