It shows you two pie charts. The chart on the left reveals the number of AIDS cases by ethnicity, for an estimated 1996 U.S. population of 269,459,000. The conclusion is that 38% of AIDS case would be white, non-Hispanic, 42% would be black, non-Hispanic, 19% would be Hispanic, and less than 2% would be Asian/Pacific Islanders, or American Indian/Alaskan Native.
