Is there a genetic basis for health disparities in human immunodeficiency virus disease?

The Mount Sinai journal of medicine, New York - 1 Jan 2000

Winkler Cheryl

Abstract excerpt

The highest global prevalence rates for human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome have been recorded in southern Africa; in the United States, individuals of African descent are disproportionately affected by human immunodeficiency virus infection. Human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals with African ancestry are also estimated to have a 17-fold or greater risk for developing...
