MMWR: Estimated Lifetime Risk for Diagnosis of HIV Infection Among Latinos --- 37 States and Puerto Rico, 2007

In 2008, the annual rate of diagnosis with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in the United States for Latinos (25.0 per 100,000 population) was approximately three times that for whites (8.2) (1). To calculate the estimated lifetime risk (ELR) and age-conditional risk for diagnosis of HIV infection among Latinos in 37 states and Puerto Rico, CDC analyzed HIV surveillance data, vital statistics data on general and HIV-specific mortality, and U.S. census data from 2007.
