What about HIV incidence in gay women? Doesn't it deserve a mention?
- woodruffw 5y agoIt's the US and not the UK, but here's the breakdown for 2019[1]. TL;DR: * 66% of recorded infections are in the gay/MSM population; * 23% of recorded infections are in the straight population The site doesn't provide the actual statistic for gay women/WSW, but those two numbers imply that it's around 11% (+/- 2% for the transgender population, which is also not clearly factored out.)
