"Summit Looks for Ways to Curb District’s Spiraling HIV/AIDS Rates"

On May 4 at the District of Columbia Black AIDS Leadership Mobilization Summit, participants discussed ways to respond to HIV/AIDS in Washington. About two months ago, the District’s Department of Health reported that 3 percent of all D.C. residents were known to be living with HIV/AIDS. More than 4 percent of the District’s black residents have HIV, including 6.5 percent of black men.
