There are a lot of T Girls out there with HIV and they dont know!!!! Know the facts!
In 2013, a meta-analysis (Baral et al.) reported that the estimated HIV prevalence among transgender women was 22% in five high-income countries, including the United States. 3869 transgender women sampled.
Findings from a systematic review (Herbst et al.) of 29 published studies showed that 28% of transgender women had HIV infection (4 studies), while 12% of transgender women self-reported having HIV (18 studies). This discrepancy suggests many transgender women living with HIV don’t know their HIV status.
Among the 3.3 million HIV testing eventsa reported to CDC in 2013, the highest percentages of newly identified HIV-positive persons were among transgender persons.
Knowledge on both parties is the key to prevention.

I might believe those numbers in Brazil, but it seems a little excessive for a place like the US. Granted I haven't actually looked up my own facts.

Thanks, interesting that the OP chose to leave off a couple of the bullet points in his post.
In the systematic review, black/African American transgender women were most likely to test HIV positive, compared to those of other races/ethnicities: 56% of black/African American transgender women had positive HIV test results compared to 17% of white or 16% of Hispanic/Latina transgender women.
Although HIV prevalence among transgender men is relatively low (0-3%), a 2011 study (Rowniak et al.) suggests that transgender men who have sex with men are at substantial risk for acquiring HIV.

After Samui posted the source can you accept this is a significant problem? because there seems to be resistance to the stats and it doesn't seem logical
