PS: Consider the AIDS rate in Washington DC at ~3%. "Our rates are higher than West Africa" http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/03...

"Black men, with an infection rate of nearly 7 percent, carry the weight of the disease, according to the report, which also underscores that the District's HIV and AIDS population is aging. Almost 1 in 10 residents between the ages of 40 and 49 has the virus."
