非洲裔美国妇女继续不成比例地受到艾滋病毒/艾滋病流行病的影响,然而,很少有专门针对她们的生活并针对其风险因素的有效艾滋病毒预防干预措施。我们提供了一个全面的风险因素,是推动艾滋病毒/艾滋病的概述。艾滋病在非裔美国妇女中的流行,并解释在艾滋病预防策略中忽视这些因素的后果。考虑到成年非裔美国妇女独特的生活经历。(Am J公共卫生。2009;99:996-1001。doi:10.2105/AJPH.2008.140541)
African American women continue to be disproportionately affected by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, yet there are few effective HIV prevention interventions that are exclusively tailored to their lives and that address their risk factors.Using an ecological framework, we offer a comprehensive overview of the risk factors that are driving the HIV/AIDS epidemic among African American women and explicate the consequences of ignoring these factors in HIV prevention strategies.We also recommend ways to improve HIV prevention programs by taking into consideration the unique life experiences of adult African American women.
