Simon StonesGUEST
And there's quite a lot of research which has been published that's shown some of that, um, disproportionality.

Simon StonesGUEST
For example, gay and bisexual men are disproportionately affected by HIV, and we know with some specific statistics that show that Black and Latino men and trans women carry the highest incidence within that landscape.

Simon StonesGUEST
If we look at transgender and non-binary people, I think that shows some of one of the steepest gaps of all.

Simon StonesGUEST
Um, I think, you know, compared to cisgender adults, there's a 42% lower cervical screening rate and a 76% lower breast screening rate despite no meaningful difference in the prevalence of cancer.

Simon StonesGUEST
And, you know, also thinking about older LGBTQIA+ adults who are more like- more likely to rate their health as being poor, having more chronic conditions, and actually having less social and family support.
