Klappentext zu „HIV/AIDS and Intimate Partner Violence “
African-American women bear the brunt of HIV s assault on the United States. They are the fastest
growing group of HIV-infected individuals in the US.
While African-American women make up 13% of the
female population of the United States, they
comprise 67% of the newly reported AIDS cases.
African-American women are more likely to be
infected through heterosexual intercourse than any
other method While some factors influencing the
spread of HIV/AIDS have been well researched, other
areas need to be more closely examined. Such is the
case with Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). IPV has
been shown to be a risk factor for numerous
unfavorable health outcomes including HIV. However,
the concern seems largely directed to countries
where women s rights are extremely limited. In the
United States however, further exploration is
necessary to determine the relationship between
Intimate Partner Violence and HIV.
