• Description:
  In 2021, there were an estimated 153 500 persons aged at least 13 years with undiagnosed HIV infection. Estimated rates among Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, and White persons were used to assess disparity trends from 2017 to 2021. Rates decreased across two absolute and relative disparity measures. Despite these declines, Black and Hispanic persons had rates 8.3 and 4.2 times the rate of White persons in 2021. Increased testing and innovative efforts are needed to address HIV-related disparities.
