HIV/AIDS Resources for Healthcare Professionals

Despite the stigma that HIV/AIDS carry, modern medicine has made it possible for people with HIV to live long, healthy, and active lives.

HIV/AIDS continues to be a significant public health challenge in the US. The annual number of new diagnoses decreased 7% from 2014 to 2018, but Hispanics/Latinos accounted for 27% of the new HIV diagnoses. As the largest and fastest-growing minority in the US, coupled with disproportionate rates of HIV/AIDS, Hispanics are crucially important to prioritize in HIV prevention and care efforts, especially among MSM and transgender women. The National Hispanic Medical Association’s (NHMA) partnership with CDC’s Let’s Stop HIV Together (Together) campaign will increase HIV awareness, reduce new HIV infections, and improve health outcomes.
