HIV impacts hundreds of thousands of women. Here's how. - LGBTQ Nation

The truth, of course, is that anyone can contract HIV, given the right circumstance, and according to the Yale University Library's online exhibition " We Are Everywhere: Lesbians in the Archive," by 1991 roughly 40% of HIV-positive people and 12% of AIDS patients in the U.S. were women. But a combination of longstanding bias in the medical field and the perception of HIV/AIDS as a gay epidemic led to women being excluded from research studies and clinical trials.

While antiretroviral (ARV) therapies are extending lives and keeping HIV at bay, and PrEP has the potential to effectively halt transmission of the virus, a cure has remained elusive. That's because the HIV virus itself is elusive, both co-opting the immune system and hiding from it.
