September 14, 200818 yr 03:08 PM CDT on Thursday, September 11, 2008 Bloomberg News HIV infections in the U.S. are highest among gay black men under age 30, an analysis of government data found. More than half of 56,300 new HIV infections in 2006 were in men who have sex with men, and the largest number of any demographic group -- 12 percent of the total cases -- were in young, homosexual black men, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a report released today. The analysis is a second look at long-awaited research published last month showing the AIDS virus is spreading about 40 percent faster in the U.S. than the government had estimated for at least seven years. Young black men who have sex with men should be prime targets for screening and prevention of the disease, CDC researchers said. The rising number of infections "underscores the need to ensure that each new generation has the knowledge and skills to prevent HIV infection beginning early in their lives," the Atlanta-based CDC said in a statement.
