A 2013 meta-analysis of data from 39 studies in 15 countries, including 11,066 transgender women revealed an HIV prevalence of nearly 20% among trans women globally, with prevalence varying from 18% in low- and middle-income countries, to 22% in high-income countries.16 The authors report that, based on these studies, trans women are 49 times more likely than other adults to be living with HIV. However, these data must be considered with caution given that trans women are also less likely to be engaged in health care, which may mean that a significant number of people in this population are living with undiagnosed HIV.
Transgender people are around 13 times more likely to be HIV-positive than other adults of reproductive age. In some regions, transgender women account for disproportionally large shares of new infections, including Asia and the Pacific (7%), Latin America (6%) and the Caribbean (5%). HIV prevalence among transgender women is estimated to be 28.4% in Eastern and Southern Africa; 13.5% in Western and Central Africa; 22.2% in Latin America; and 23.7% in the Caribbean (UNAIDS, 2020). Little data is available for transgender men and other transgender populations regarding HIV epidemiology. Even less data is available regarding prevalence and incidence rates of viral hepatitis and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in transgender people.

Makes sense, trannies in teh USA are disproportinately black, and blacks are the most affected racial group by HIV.
