SUMMARY:
In New York City,the rate of HIV infection is three times of the national rate. 72 of everry 100000 New Yorkers contracted
HIV in 2006 more than the national rate of 23 of 100000,that mean it is triple rate in New York City. HIV, or the human
immunodeficiency virus, is the virus that causes AIDS. Morover, men who have sex with men received HIV inflection higher in New York City because HIV spread within those group, so the risk of HIV infection per sexual contact is higher.

In addition, 36 percent of gay and bisexual in New York City, men who had many partners to have sex without condoms
This is a main group which is at high risk for getting and spreading HIV

MY OPINION:
I have heard about HIV for long time,it is impossible to treat because there is no medicine for HIV.This article, I can not believe that the rate of HIV infection is three times of the national rate because New York City was developed, it has a lot of modern tecnology, and many educated people,but I do not know why this city is triple higher rate of HIv than the national rate is. I think New yorkers should protect themselves from HIV or decrease it because if it speads more in New york City, this city will be worse.
