Note. Data include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection regardless of stage of disease at diagnosis.
See Technical Notes for the list of areas that have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2005.
a Estimated numbers resulted from statistical adjustment that accounted for reporting delays, but not for incomplete reporting. Rates are per 100,000 population.
b Hispanics/Latinos can be of any race.
c Because column totals for estimated numbers were calculated independently of the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may not sum to the column total.
