1 Includes 1 person whose sex is unknown.
2 Includes persons known to be infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2). See MMWR 1995;44:603-06.
3 Forty-one adults/adolescents and 2 children developed AIDS after receiving blood screened negative for HIV antibody. Thirteen additional adults developed AIDS after receiving tissue, organs, or artificial insemination from HIV-infected donors. Four of the 13 received tissue, organs, or artificial insemination from a donor who was negative for HIV antibody at the time of donation. See N Engl J Med 1992;326:726-32.
4 Thirty-four adults/adolescents are included in the “other” exposure category who were exposed to HIV-infected blood, body fluids, or concentrated virus in health care, laboratory, or household settings, as supported by seroconversion, epidemiologic, and/or laboratory evidence. See MMWR 1993;42:329-31, MMWR 1993;42:948-51, and XI International Conference on AIDS; Vancouver, Canada: July 7-12, 1996;1:179 [abstract Mo.D.1728]. One person was infected following intentional inoculation with HIV-infected blood. Additionally, 221 persons acquired HIV infection perinatally and were diagnosed with AIDS after age 13. These 221 persons are tabulated under the adult/adolescent, not pediatric, exposure category. See Technical Notes.
5 Includes 5 children who were exposed to HIV-infected blood as supported by seroconversion, epidemiologic, and/or laboratory evidence: 1 child was infected following intentional inoculation with HIV-infected blood and 4 children were exposed to HIV-infected blood in a household setting (see MMWR 1992;41:228-31 and N Engl J Med 1993;329:1835-41). Twelve of the children had sexual contact with an adult with or at high risk for HIV infection (see Pediatrics 1998;102:e46).
