RESUMO
Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir os fatores determinantes da vulnerabilidade das mulheres negras a HIV/aids. Pela descrição e análise de dados socioeconômicos, de incidência e mortalidade de aids e da mortalidade de outras patologias, desenha-se o quadro epidemiológico que ressalta as iniquidades em saúde da população negra e, em particular, das mulheres desse segmento populacional. Quando comparadas às mulheres brancas, as negras apresentam, repetidamente, maior risco de adoecimento e morte. A discussão sobre violência sexual e doméstica reitera as disparidades e a maior vulnerabilidade social da mulher negra. As desigualdades socioeconômicas e o racismo institucional são as hipóteses explicativas para a alta vulnerabilidade às DST/aids das mulheres negras. Apenas com uma ampla gama de ações multissetoriais, incisivo enfrentamento do racismo institucional pelo Estado e fortalecimento do movimento social será possível iniciar a longa jornada para se alcançar o propalado princípio de equidade na saúde.
ABSTRACT
Abstract The aim of this paper is to discuss the determinants of the vulnerability of black women to HIV/AIDS. By describing and analyzing socioeconomic data, incidence and mortality by AIDS and other diseases, we have drawn an epidemiological framework that emphasizes health inequities of black people, particularly black women. When compared to white women, black women have repeatedly increased risk of illness and death. The discussion of sexual and domestic violence reiterates disparities and social vulnerability of the black women. Socioeconomic inequalities and institutional racism are explanatory hypotheses for the high vulnerability of black women to STD/AIDS. Only a wide range of multisectoral actions, incisive facing of institutional racism by the governments and strengthening of the social movement will allow the beginning of a long journey to reach the principle of equity in health.
