As if the healthcare system really cares about black women ....

It's a covert eugenics program - tricking people into hurting their health and ruining their fertility under the warped rhetoric of "healthcare" compassion.

yeah, the gender assigned at birth comment caught my attention also.

Where are all the Black women who aren't on prep, don't know their status, and who are dying of AIDS? This is the big elephant in the room that these articles side step. Prep isn't so much about 'HIV' as it is downstream prevention of AIDS. If the South is a hotbed of 'hiv positivity', where are all the people who don't know their status suddenly dying of AIDS like guys were back in the 1980s? This is what strikes me as disingenuous about such articles. Henry Bauer is correct about this observation too. Being HIV positive tends to follow along ethnic lines, from least likely to most likely: Asian -> Caucasian -> Hispanic -> African/Black. They want us to believe that African American women are out of control sexually as compared to their more virtuous white counterparts. Unbelievable.
