Slide 2: Diagnoses of HIV Infection among Adolescents and Young Adults Aged 13–24 Years, by Race/Ethnicity, 2006–2009—40 States and 5 U.S. Dependent Areas


During 2006 through 2009, blacks/African Americans constituted more than 60% of diagnoses of HIV infection each year among adolescents and young adults aged 13 to 24 years in the 40 states and 5 U.S. dependent areas with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2006. In 2009, of persons aged 13 to 24 years diagnosed with HIV infection, 64% were black/African American, 17% were white, 16% were Hispanic/Latino, 1% each were Asian and persons reporting multiple races, and less than 1% were American Indian/Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islander.  
 
The racial/ethnic distribution of diagnoses of HIV infection in persons aged 13 to 24 years differs substantially from the distribution of diagnoses among all adults and adolescents (aged 13 and over) in 2009. Among all adults and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection in 2009, 50% were black/African American, 28% were white, 19% were Hispanic/Latino, 1% each were Asian and persons reporting multiple races, and less than 1% were American Indian/Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islander.
 
The following 40 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2006: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The 5 U.S. dependent areas include American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
 
Data include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection regardless of stage of disease at diagnosis. All displayed data have been estimated. Estimated numbers resulted from statistical adjustment that accounted for reporting delays, but not for incomplete reporting. 
 
Hispanics/Latinos can be of any race.

Slide 3: Diagnoses of HIV Infection among Adolescents and Young Adults Aged 13–24 Years, by Transmission Category, 2006–2009—40 States and 5 U.S. Dependent Areas 


This slide presents the distribution of diagnoses of HIV infection by transmission category for adolescents and young adults 13 to 24 years of age diagnosed from 2006 through 2009 in the 40 states and 5 U.S. dependent areas with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2006.
 
Among adolescents and young adults, the estimated percentage of diagnosed HIV infections attributed to male-to-male sexual contact increased from 61% in 2006 to 71% in 2009. The percentage of diagnosed HIV infections attributed to heterosexual contact decreased from 29% to 22% during this time. The percentage of diagnosed HIV infections attributed to injection drug use also decreased slightly, from 7% to 4%.  The percentage of diagnosed HIV infections attributed to male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use remained relatively stable from 2006 through 2009.
 
The remaining diagnoses of HIV infection were those attributed to hemophilia or the receipt of blood or blood products, and those in persons without an identified risk factor.
 
The following 40 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2006: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The 5 U.S. dependent areas include American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
 
Data include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection regardless of stage of disease at diagnosis. All displayed data have been estimated. Estimated numbers resulted from statistical adjustment that accounted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information, but not for incomplete reporting.
 
Heterosexual contact is with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection.

Slide 15: AIDS Diagnoses among Adolescents Aged 13–19 Years, by Sex, 1985–2009—United States and Dependent Areas 


From 1985 through 2009, 8,732 adolescents aged 13 to 19 years were diagnosed with AIDS in the United States and dependent areas. In earlier years, most AIDS diagnoses among adolescents were in males; over time, the male-to-female ratio has decreased. In 2009, 547 adolescents were diagnosed with AIDS; of these, 353 (65%) were male and 195 (35%) were female.

Slide 16: AIDS Diagnoses among Adolescents Aged 20–24 Years, by Sex, 1985–2009—United States and Dependent Areas 

From 1985 through 2009, a total of 43,676 young adults aged 20 to 24 years were diagnosed with AIDS in the United States and dependent areas. In 1985, 88% of AIDS diagnoses in young adults 20 to 24 years of age were in males. However, as heterosexual contact has accounted for an increasing percentage of HIV infections, particularly in females, the percentage of AIDS diagnoses in females has increased. The percentage of AIDS diagnoses in females peaked in 1998 at 42% of diagnoses in young adults, and has decreased since that time. In 2009, 19% of the 2,110 AIDS diagnoses in young adults were in females.

Slide 17: AIDS Diagnoses among Adults and Adolescents,  by Race/Ethnicity and Age Group, 2009—United States and Dependent Areas

This slide compares the racial/ethnic distributions of AIDS diagnoses during 2009 in adolescents 13 to 19 years of age, young adults 20 to 24 years of age, and adults 25 and over in the United States and dependent areas.  In all three age groups, blacks/African Americans had the largest percentage of AIDS diagnoses, although the percentage decreased as age group increased: 68% in persons aged 13 to 19, 62% in persons aged 20 to 24 years, and 47% in persons aged 25 and over.  While Hispanics accounted for relatively similar percentages of AIDS diagnoses in all three age groups, they represented the second largest percentage of persons in adolescents (21%) and young adults (20%) and the third largest percentage of persons in adults over 25 years of age (21%).
