In the last few years, the impact of HIV/AIDS has been especially hard for the people of color. According to reports, in 2018, African Americans accounted for 41% of people with HIV, even though they are only 13% of the US population. Similarly, Hispanics/Lations represent 13% of the population, yet they account for the 23% of people diagnosed with HIV. To address the issue, it is important to provide education about HIV/AIDS in minority populations, as well as address stigma, discrimination, and racism. Cultural competency is also an important aspect as it will allow the researchers to understand the specific needs of the affected populations.
