The  pandemic  continues  to  significantly  impact  affect  Sub-Saharan  Africa,  where  heterosexual  transmission  is  common  and  as  many  as  1  in  20  individuals  live  with  HIV  and  AIDS.  In  the  United  States,  there  are  approximately  50,000  new  cases  annually,  with  higher  incidences  in  men  who  have  sex  with  men  and  young  minority  populations.
