It appears they left out why the most infections are among young women. The reason is because there is a widespread superstition in African developing nations that having sex with a virgin woman is a cure for AIDS. So men with the disease will rape young women until they are cured, which of course doesn't happen because that's not how cures for disease work.
Then comes poor education on the use of condoms. These are inexpensive items, and many health agencies in these places offer them freely. They are o
Well Transgender have interesting set of medical issue. They are often given hormones which will help them feel and look like their desired gender. This hormone treatment for many types of medicines may mean that some drugs will work better if it is based on their birth gender, and some other drugs after hormones and other procedures would work better that matches their desired gender.
It is an oversimplification to think when someone is transgender, and especially after they have had some degrees of treatm
Not really... They are Genetically Male, however Genetics isn't everything. If they are taking hormones, or had surgery which rearrange their parts around. Some treatments that would work for Men wouldn't work on a Transgender Woman.
And what is "genetically male" anyway? XY? What about XXY? Or hormone insensitivity/hyperactivity? A genetically XY person with androgen insensitivty could outwardly present as an XX female. It's not a simple, binary male/female.
And then of course there's gender, which is a social construct. Many societies throughout history, and even into today, have genders beyond the normal male/female, often playing very important roles in society (for example India and the roles they play in formal ceremonies).

As someone smarter than me said, and I wish I could recall who, sex is not binary but it is bimodal.
We can place everyone on this male/female spectrum and all but a very very small number is going to fall on one side or the other. Those that fall in the middle that are ambiguous enough where they can logically decide to be either should have to choose. Why make people choose? Because we can't upend the bimodal sex model in our lives for such a small percentage of the population that do not want to choose
Not if we properly figure out biology. There is nothing fundamentally preventing humanity from solving near enough all health problems, up to and including aging. Heck some of us might even live long enough to see it happen.
