Reports of cases of AIDS, HIV infection, and HIV/AIDS

Commentary
To better monitor the patterns of HIV diagnoses,
all states have implemented HIV surveillance. This
report presents estimated numbers of cases of HIV/
AIDS from the 35 areas (33 states, Guam, and the
U.S. Virgin Islands) with integrated HIV and AIDS
surveillance since at least 2000. Two of these areas
began integrated surveillance in 2000: Guam and New
York. New York is the state with the highest reported
percentage (18%) of cumulative national AIDS cases,
and inclusion of their integrated data resulted in large
numeric increases in the estimated number of HIV/
AIDS cases compared to previous HIV/AIDS
surveillance reports. From 2001 through 2004, the
total number of new cases of HIV/AIDS in the 35
areas decreased slightly; however, HIV/AIDS
prevalence (i.e., the number of persons living with
HIV/AIDS) increased during this time: at the end of
2004, an estimated 462,792 persons in the 35 areas
were diagnosed and living with HIV/AIDS. According to the number of reported AIDS cases, these 35
areas represent approximately 61% of the epidemic
in the United States. The map on the cover depicts
the estimated number of cases of HIV/AIDS in
2004, by area of residence at diagnosis, for persons
residing in the 33 states with integrated HIV and
AIDS surveillance.
Surveillance data on HIV infections provide a
more complete picture of the epidemic and the need
for prevention and care services than does the picture
provided by AIDS data alone. However, the number
of new HIV diagnoses does not necessarily reflect
trends in HIV incidence (i.e., new infections) because
some newly diagnosed persons were infected
recently while others were infected some time in the
past. One method for estimating HIV incidence is to
apply the serologic testing algorithm for recent HIV
seroconversion (STARHS) to the serum specimens
from which new HIV diagnoses were made. A total
of 34 areas are using this method to estimate population-based HIV incidence: 5 areas were funded in FY
2002 to pilot this method, 19 areas were funded in FY
2003, another 9 areas were funded in FY 2004 and
one additional area was funded in FY 2005. The
monitoring of HIV incidence will be critical in evaluating progress toward CDC’s HIV Prevention
Strategic Plan goal of reducing the number of new
HIV infections in the United States from 40,000 to
20,000 per year, to allocate resources and evaluate
prevention program effectiveness.

In 2002, CDC initiated the Interstate Duplication
Evaluation Project (IDEP), a formal evaluation
comparing HIV/AIDS records in the national database across states in order to identify potential
duplicate cases. Current IDEP de-duplication efforts
were completed in December 2004, and approximately 40,000 HIV/AIDS cases were found to be
duplicates (representing less than 5% of almost 1
million cases that have been reported to CDC over
the course of the epidemic); these duplicate cases
have been removed from the national surveillance
database and from individual state surveillance
databases. As a result of this correction there may be
minor reductions in reported cases displayed in this
surveillance report compared to the previous HIV/
AIDS surveillance report.
The 2004 HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report
presents data on cases of HIV/AIDS. For analyses
of HIV/AIDS data, we used data from 35 areas (i.e.,
33 states, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) with
mature HIV reporting systems (i.e., HIV reporting at
least since 2000) to allow for stabilization of data
collection and for adjustment of the data in order to
monitor trends. Tables 1, 2, 8, and 9 summarize cases
and prevalence of HIV/AIDS. For analyses of AIDS
cases, we used data from the 50 states, the District of
Columbia, U.S. dependencies, possessions, and
associated nations.
This report is organized in 5 sections: (1) cases of
HIV/AIDS and AIDS, (2) deaths of persons with
AIDS, (3) persons living with HIV/AIDS, AIDS, or
HIV infection (not AIDS), (4) length of survival after
AIDS diagnosis, and (5) reports of cases of AIDS,
HIV infection (not AIDS), and HIV/AIDS. In
Sections 1–3, we present point estimates of case
counts that have been adjusted for reporting delays
and for redistribution of cases in persons initially
reported without an identified risk factor. CDC
routinely adjusts data for the presentation of trends in
the epidemic. Data to estimate the number of cases
of HIV/AIDS or AIDS; the number of persons living
with HIV/AIDS, AIDS, or HIV infection (not AIDS);
and the number of deaths among persons with AIDS
have been statistically adjusted to correct for delays
in the reporting of cases and deaths. To assess trends
in cases, deaths, or prevalence, it is preferable to use
adjusted data, presented by year of diagnosis instead
of year of report, to eliminate artifacts of reporting in
the surveillance system. Therefore, for trends, the

Reports of cases of AIDS, HIV infection, and HIV/AIDS

5

reader is encouraged to use the tables in Sections 1–3
that present trends by year of diagnosis, year of
death, or year-end prevalence. Section 4 presents
estimates of survival for persons whose AIDS
diagnosis was made during 2000 (Table 13) and for
persons whose diagnosis was made during 1996–
2003 (Figures 2–4). Proportions of persons who
survived for various lengths of time after diagnosis
are presented by year of diagnosis, age group, race/
ethnicity, and HIV transmission category. Finally,
Section 5 presents reports of cases of HIV infection
(not AIDS) and cases of AIDS reported through
2004. The areas included in tabulations of reported
cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) are based on the
date that confidential name-based HIV infection
reporting was implemented. For Tables 16, 18, 20,
and 22, we used data from 42 areas to describe
reports of HIV infection. These data have not been
adjusted for delays in reporting and are presented by
year of report to CDC. Tables that present cases by
year of report represent the most up-to-date information reported to CDC; however, cases by year of
report do not represent incident cases, the most
recent diagnoses, trends, or deaths.

Highlights of Analyses
Cases of HIV/AIDS and cases of AIDS
Cases of HIV/AIDS
The estimated number of HIV/AIDS cases in
the 35 areas with confidential name-based HIV
infection reporting decreased year to year from 2001
through 2003 and then increased approximately 1%
from the end of 2003 (38,188) through the end of
2004 (38,730).
• Age group: From 2001 through 2004, the
estimated number of HIV/AIDS cases decreased
among children less than 13 years of age and in
the following age groups: 13–14, 30–34, 35–39,
40–44, and 45–49. The estimated number of
HIV/AIDS cases remained stable in the age
group 25–29 years, and increased in the following
age groups: 15–19, 20–24, 50–54, 55–59, 60–64,
and 65 years and older. The largest number of
HIV/AIDS cases occurred among persons age
35–39 years and accounted for 17% of all HIV/
AIDS cases diagnosed in 2004.
• Race/ethnicity: From 2001 through 2004, the
estimated number of HIV/AIDS cases increased
among whites, Asians/Pacific Islanders, and
American Indians/Alaska Natives, and decreased
6

among blacks and Hispanics. Blacks accounted
for 50% of all HIV/AIDS cases diagnosed
in 2004.
• Sex: From 2001 through 2004, the estimated
number of HIV/AIDS cases decreased
approximately 2% among males and 15% among
females. In 2004, males accounted for 73% of all
HIV/AIDS cases among adults and adolescents.
• Transmission category: From 2001 through
2004, the estimated number of HIV/AIDS cases
increased among men who have sex with men
(MSM). The estimated number of HIV/AIDS
cases decreased among injection drug users
(IDUs), MSM who were also IDUs, heterosexual
adults and adolescents, and among children.
MSM (47%) and persons exposed through
heterosexual contact (33%) accounted for 80%
of all HIV/AIDS cases diagnosed in 2004.
Of all HIV infections diagnosed in 2003, 39% progressed to AIDS within 12 months after HIV infection was diagnosed. AIDS was diagnosed within 12
months after the diagnosis of HIV infection for a
larger proportion of persons aged 35 years and older,
IDUs, and persons exposed through heterosexual
contact (Table 2).

Cases of AIDS
During 2000–2001, decreases in annual AIDS
cases began to level; however, after 2001, the
estimated number of AIDS cases increased each
year (Table 3). In 2004, the estimated rate of AIDS
cases in the United States was 14.1 per 100,000
population (Table 5a).
• Age group: From 2000 through 2004, the
estimated number of AIDS cases decreased 61%
among children less than 13 years of age, 11% in
the age group 30–34, and 10% in the age group
35–39 years, and remained stable in the age
group 13–14 years (Table 3). The estimated
number of AIDS cases increased in the following
age groups: 15–19, 20–24, 25–29, 40–44, 45–49,
50–54, 55–59, 60–64, and 65 years and older.
The largest number of AIDS cases occurred
among persons age 40–44 years and accounted
for 21% of all AIDS cases diagnosed in 2004.
• Race/ethnicity: From 2000 through 2004, the
estimated number of AIDS cases increased
among all racial and ethnic groups (Table 3). In
2004, rates of AIDS cases were 56.4 per 100,000
in the black population, 18.6 per 100,000 in the

Hispanic population, 7.9 per 100,000 in the
American Indian/Alaska Native population,
6.0 per 100,000 in the white population, and
3.7 per 100,000 in the Asian/Pacific Islander
population (Table 5a).
Sex: From 2000 through 2004, the estimated
number of AIDS cases increased 10% among
females and 7% among males. Males accounted
for 73% of all AIDS cases diagnosed in 2004
among adults and adolescents in the United
States (Table 3). Rates of AIDS cases in 2004
were 25.6 per 100,000 among males and 9.0 per
100,000 among females (Table 5a).
Transmission category: From 2000 through
2004, the estimated number of AIDS cases
decreased among IDUs and among MSM who
were also IDUs (Table 3). From 2000 through
2004, the estimated number of AIDS cases
increased among MSM. Among persons exposed
through heterosexual contact, the estimated
number of AIDS cases increased each year from
2000 through 2004.
Region: From 2000 through 2004, the estimated
number of AIDS cases increased 25% in the
South and 13% in the Midwest, and decreased
8% in the Northeast, 6% in the West, and 15% in
the U.S. dependencies, possessions, and associated nations.

Deaths
The estimated number of deaths among persons
with AIDS decreased 8% from 2000 through 2004
(Table 7).
• Age group: From 2000 through 2004, the
estimated number of deaths decreased among
children less than 13 years of age and in the
following age groups: 15–19, 25–29, 30–34, 35–
39, 40–44, and 45–49. The estimated number of
deaths increased in the age groups 13–14, 20–24,
50–54, 55–59, 60–64, and 65 years and older.
• Race/ethnicity: From 2000 through 2004, the
estimated number of deaths among persons with
AIDS decreased among whites, blacks, and
Asians/Pacific Islanders and increased among
Hispanics and American Indians/Alaska Natives.
• Sex and transmission category: From 2000
through 2004, among males, the estimated
number of deaths of MSM and IDUs decreased.
Among females, the estimated number of deaths
of IDUs decreased. The estimated number of
deaths increased from 2000 through 2004 among

•

adults and adolescents of both sexes exposed
through heterosexual contact.
Region: The estimated number of deaths in 2004
compared with 2003 decreased in the Northeast
and the Midwest; remained stable in the West
and increased in the South, and U.S. dependencies, possessions, and associated nations.

Persons living with HIV/AIDS, HIV
infection (not AIDS), or AIDS
Persons living with HIV/AIDS
The estimated number of persons living with
HIV/AIDS has increased steadily in the 35 areas
with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting
(Table 8). At the end of 2004, an estimated 462,792
persons were living with HIV/AIDS in the 35 areas
with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting
since 2000:
• By age group, the most cases (22%) were in the
age group 40–44 years.
• By race/ethnicity, 48% were black, 34% white,
17% Hispanic, and less than 1% each were
American Indian/Alaska Native and Asian/
Pacific Islander.
• By sex, 73% of adults and adolescents living with
HIV/AIDS were male.
• Of the estimated 332,578 male adults and adolescents living with HIV/AIDS, 60% were MSM,
19% were IDUs, 13% had been exposed through
heterosexual contact, and 7% were MSM who
also were IDUs. Of the estimated 123,405
female adults and adolescents living with HIV/
AIDS, 71% had been exposed through heterosexual contact, and 27% had been exposed
through injection drug use. Of the estimated 6,804
children living with HIV/AIDS, 90% had been
exposed perinatally.

Prevalence rates of HIV infection (not AIDS)
In the 35 areas with confidential name-based
HIV infection reporting, the prevalence rate of HIV
infection (not AIDS) among adults and adolescents
was estimated at 136.7 per 100,000 at the end of
2004 (Map 1). The rate for adults and adolescents
living with HIV infection (not AIDS) ranged from an
estimated 15.0 per 100,000 (North Dakota) to an
estimated 281.7 per 100,000 (U.S. Virgin Islands).
The prevalence rate of HIV infection (not AIDS)
among children residing in the 35 areas was an
estimated 7.9 per 100,000 at the end of 2004 (Map 2).

The rate for children living with HIV infection (not
AIDS) ranged from an estimated zero per 100,000 in
New Mexico, North Dakota, and Guam, to an
estimated 32.3 per 100,000 in New York.

Persons living with AIDS
AIDS prevalence has also increased steadily
since 2000 (Table 10). At the end of 2004, an estimated 415,193 persons in the United States were
living with AIDS:
• By age group, the most cases (23%) were in the
age group 40–44 years.
• By race/ethnicity, 43% were black, 35% white,
20% Hispanic, 1% Asian/Pacific Islander and
less than 1% American Indian/Alaska Native.
• By sex, 77% of adults and adolescents living with
AIDS were male.
• By region, 39% resided in the South, 29% in the
Northeast, 19% in the West, 10% in the Midwest,
and 3% in the U.S. dependencies, possessions,
and associated nations.
• Of the estimated 317,698 male adults and adolescents living with AIDS, 58% were MSM, 21%
were IDUs, 11% had been exposed through
heterosexual contact, and 8% were MSM who
were also IDUs. Of the estimated 93,566 female
adults and adolescents living with AIDS, 64%
had been exposed through heterosexual contact,
and 34% had been exposed through injection
drug use.

AIDS prevalence rates
In the United States, the prevalence rate of AIDS
among adults and adolescents was estimated at 168.8
per 100,000 at the end of 2004 (Map 1). The rate for
adults and adolescents living with AIDS ranged from
an estimated 4 per 100,000 (U.S. Pacific Islands) to
an estimated 1,906 per 100,000 (District of Columbia). The prevalence rate of AIDS among children in
the United States was estimated at 3.2 per 100,000 at
the end of 2004 (Map 2). The rate for children living
with AIDS ranged from an estimated zero per
100,000 in Guam, Idaho, Montana, Utah, and the U.S.
Pacific Islands to an estimated 52.8 per 100,000 in the
District of Columbia.

Survival after AIDS diagnosis
Table 13 is limited to data on AIDS cases
diagnosed in 2000 in order to describe the survival
of persons whose diagnosis was made relatively
8

recently, but far enough in the past to permit a
meaningful measure of survival. Figures 2, 3, and 4
illustrate the proportion of surviving persons among
persons whose diagnoses were made over a longer
period, 1996 through 2003.
•

•

•

Survival (the estimated proportion of persons
surviving a given length of time after diagnosis)
increased with the year of diagnosis for diagnoses
made during 1996–1999. Year-to-year differences
were small during 1999–2003 (Figure 2).
Survival decreased as age at diagnosis increased
among persons at least 35 years old at diagnosis
and in comparison with persons younger than 35.
Survival was similar for the age groups 13–24
and 25–34. Survival was greatest among children
less than 13 years of age at diagnosis (Figure 3).
Survival was greatest among MSM and among
children with perinatally acquired HIV infection
(Table 13). Survival was intermediate among men
and women who had heterosexual contact with
someone known to be HIV infected or at high
risk for HIV infection, as well as among MSM
who also were IDUs. Survival was lowest among
men and women who were IDUs.
Survival, particularly at more than 48 months
after diagnosis, was greater among Asians/
Pacific Islanders, whites, and Hispanics, than
among blacks (Figure 4). Results were unstable
or inconsistent for American Indians/Alaska
Natives because the numbers of persons in this
racial/ethnic category were small.

Reports of Cases of AIDS, HIV infection
(not AIDS), and HIV/AIDS
Tables 14–23 describe reports of cases of AIDS,
HIV infection (not AIDS), and of HIV/AIDS. Tables
16, 18, 20, and 22 are based on reports of cases of
HIV infection (not AIDS) through 2004 from the 42
areas that had implemented name-based HIV infection reporting. Note that not all cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) or AIDS reported in 2004 reflected
new diagnoses; rather, the reported cases include
cases diagnosed during earlier years.

Reports of cases of HIV infection (not AIDS)

Texas, New Jersey, and North Carolina) reported
121,787 (53%) of the 229,411 cumulative cases of
HIV infection (not AIDS) reported to CDC. In 2004,
3 states (New York, Florida, and Texas) reported
15,283 (46%) of the 33,563 cases of HIV infection
(not AIDS).
• By sex, in 2004, 70% of the 33,132 reported
cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) among adults
and adolescents were in males, and 30% were in
females (Table 18).
• In 2004, 431 cases of HIV infection (not AIDS)
in children were reported.

Reports of AIDS cases
Through 2004, a total of 918,286 persons had
been reported as having AIDS in the United States,
dependencies, possessions, and associated nations
(Table 14). Three states (California, Florida, and
New York) reported 43% of the cumulative AIDS
cases, and 41% of AIDS cases reported to CDC in
2004. In the United States, the rate of reported AIDS
cases in 2004 was 15.0 per 100,000 population. The
rate of reported AIDS cases ranged from zero per
100,000 (U.S. Pacific Islands) to 179.2 per 100,000
(District of Columbia).
• By sex, in 2004, males accounted for 73% and
females for 27% of 44,615 reported AIDS cases
among adults and adolescents (Table 17).

Reports of cases of AIDS, HIV infection, and HIV/AIDS

Technical Notes
Surveillance of HIV Infection (not AIDS)
This report includes data from case reports from
42 areas that had laws or regulations requiring
confidential reporting by name for adults and adolescents and/or children with confirmed HIV infection
(not AIDS), in addition to the reporting of persons
with AIDS. Connecticut required reporting by name
for children 13 years of age and younger. After the
removal of personal identifying information, data from
these reports were submitted to CDC (see Table 16
for list of areas). The implementation of HIV
reporting has differed from state to state. Before
1991, surveillance of HIV infection (not AIDS) was
not standardized, and the reporting of HIV infections
(not AIDS) was based primarily on passive surveillance. The information on many of the cases reported before 1991 is not complete. Since then, CDC
has assisted states in conducting active surveillance
of HIV infections (not AIDS) by the use of standardized report forms and software.
Data on HIV infection (not AIDS) should be
interpreted with caution. HIV surveillance reports
may not be representative of all persons infected with
HIV because not all infected persons have been
tested. Many HIV-reporting states offer anonymous
HIV testing; the results of anonymous tests are not
reported to the confidential name-based HIV registries of state and local health departments. Therefore, reports of confidential test results may not
represent all persons who tested positive for HIV
infection. Furthermore, many factors, including the
extent to which testing is routinely offered to specific
groups and the availability of, and access to, medical
care and testing services, may influence testing
patterns. These data provide a minimum estimate of
the number of persons known to be HIV infected in
states with confidential HIV reporting.
As of December 31, 2004, 8 areas (California,
Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, Vermont, and the District of Columbia) had
implemented a code-based system to conduct case
surveillance for HIV infection (not AIDS). Other
areas (Delaware, Maine, Montana, Oregon, and
Washington) had implemented a name-to-code
system for conducting HIV infection surveillance:
initially, names are collected, and, after any necessary
public health follow-up, names are converted to

codes. Connecticut allows cases of HIV infection
(not AIDS) in adults and adolescents to be reported
by name or code; New Hampshire allows HIV cases
to be reported with or without a name. Data on
cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) from these areas
are not included in the HIV data tables pending
evaluations demonstrating acceptable performance
according to CDC guidelines and pending the development of methods for reporting such data to CDC.
For this report, we classified cases in adults,
adolescents, and children 18 months of age and older
by using the 2000 revised HIV surveillance case
definition, which incorporates positive test results or
reports of a detectable quantity of HIV nucleic acid
or plasma HIV RNA [1]. For children less than 18
months of age, the pediatric HIV reporting criteria
reflect diagnostic advances that permit the diagnosis
of HIV infection during the first months of life. By
the use of HIV nucleic acid detection tests, HIV
infection can be detected in nearly all infants aged 1
month and older. The timing of the HIV serologic
and HIV nucleic acid detection tests specified in the
definitive and presumptive criteria for HIV infection
is based on the recommended practices for diagnosing infection in children aged less than 18 months and
on evaluations of the performance of these tests for
children in this age group. Children aged less than 18
months born to an HIV-infected mother are categorized as having been exposed perinatally to HIV
infection if the child does not meet the criteria for
HIV infection or the criteria for “not infected with
HIV” [1, 2]. Children born before 1994 were
considered HIV infected if they met the HIV case
definition in the 1987 pediatric classification system
for HIV infection [3].
Because states initiated reporting on different
dates, the length of time reporting has been in place
influences the number of HIV infection cases reported. For example, data presented for a given year
may include cases reported during only a part of the
year. Before statewide HIV reporting, some states
collected reports of HIV infection (not AIDS) in
selected populations. Therefore, these states have
reports that precede the initiation of statewide
confidential reporting. A state with confidential HIV
infection reporting also may report persons who
tested positive in that state but who were residents of

Reports of cases of AIDS,
Technical
HIV infection,
Notes and HIV/AIDS

39

other states. Therefore, when HIV data are presented by state of residence, cases reported before a
state initiated reporting may have been reported from
other states that did have confidential HIV infection
reporting.
Over time, HIV infection may progress to AIDS
and be reported to surveillance. Persons with HIV
infection (not AIDS) who are later reported as having
AIDS are deleted from the HIV infection (not AIDS)
tables and added to the AIDS tables. Persons with
HIV infection may be tested at any point on the
clinical spectrum of disease; therefore, the time
between diagnosis of HIV infection and diagnosis of
AIDS differs. In addition, because surveillance
practices differ, the reporting and updating of persons’
clinical and vital status differ among states. Completeness of reporting for HIV infection (not AIDS) is
estimated at more than 85% [4].

Surveillance of AIDS
All 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S.
dependencies, possessions, and associated nations
report AIDS cases to CDC by using a uniform
surveillance case definition and case report form.
The original definition was modified in 1985 and 1987
[5, 6]. The case definition for adults and adolescents
was modified again in 1993 [7; see also 8]. The
revisions incorporated a broader range of AIDSindicator diseases and conditions and used HIV
diagnostic tests to improve the sensitivity and specificity of the definition. The laboratory and diagnostic
criteria for the 1987 pediatric case definition [3] were
updated in 1994 [9]. Effective January 1, 2000, the
surveillance case definition for HIV infection was
revised to reflect advances in laboratory HIV virologic tests. The definition incorporates the reporting
criteria for HIV infection and AIDS into a single case
definition for adults and children [1].
For persons with laboratory-confirmed HIV
infection, the 1987 revision incorporated encephalopathy, wasting syndrome, and other indicator diseases
that are diagnosed presumptively (i.e., without
confirmatory laboratory evidence of opportunistic
infection). In addition to the 23 clinical conditions in
the 1987 definition, the 1993 case definition for adults
and adolescents includes HIV infection among
persons with CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts of less than
200 cells/µL or a CD4+ percentage of less than 14
and a diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis, recurrent
pneumonia, or invasive cervical cancer. For adults,

40

adolescents, and children 18 months of age and older,
the 2000 revised HIV surveillance case definition
incorporates positive test results or reports of a
detectable quantity of HIV nucleic acid or plasma
HIV RNA.
The pediatric case definition incorporates the
revised 1994 pediatric classification system for
evidence of HIV infection. Cases among children
with their first positive results by Western blot or HIV
detection tests before October 1994 were categorized
according to the 1987 classification system. For
children of any age with an AIDS-defining condition
that requires evidence of HIV infection, a single
positive HIV virologic test result (i.e., HIV nucleic
acid [DNA or RNA], HIV viral culture, HIV p24
antigen) is sufficient for a reportable AIDS diagnosis
if the diagnosis is documented by a physician.
Although completeness of reporting of AIDS
cases to state and local health departments differs by
geographic region and patient population, studies
conducted by state and local health departments
indicate that the reporting of AIDS cases in most
areas of the United States is more than 85% complete [10–13]. In addition, multiple routes of exposure, opportunistic infections diagnosed after the initial
AIDS case report was submitted to CDC, and vital
status may not be determined or reported for all
cases. However, for persons reported as having
AIDS, the reporting of deaths is estimated to be more
than 90% complete [14]. (See Commentary for
discussion of duplicates.)
Since January 1, 1994, CDC has not accepted
AIDS case reports that meet only the laboratorybased immunologic criteria of the 1993 expanded
surveillance case definition [7] if information on sex
or race/ethnicity was missing. A small number of
cases previously reported to CDC without those
variables have been returned to the health departments for follow-up and have been deleted from
the totals.

Tabulation and Presentation of Data
Data in this report are provisional. This report
includes information received by CDC through June
30, 2005. For analyses of cases of HIV infection, we
used data from 35 areas (i.e., 33 states, Guam and
the U.S. Virgin Islands) that have had HIV infection
reporting for a sufficient time (i.e., at least since
2000) to allow for stabilization of data collection and
for adjustment of the data in order to monitor trends.

Reports of cases of AIDS,
Technical
HIVNotes
infection, and HIV/AIDS

This report is organized in 5 sections. In Sections
1–3 (i.e., Tables 1–12, Figure 1, and Maps 1 and 2),
data have been statistically adjusted to correct
for delays in the reporting of cases and deaths;
unreported risk factors have been statistically redistributed to better present the trends in the epidemic
and the distribution of risk characteristics among
affected populations. To assess trends in cases,
deaths, or prevalence, it is preferable to use adjusted
data, presented by year of diagnosis instead of year
of report. Section 4, which presents survival data, is
discussed later in the Technical Notes. In Section 5
(Tables 14–23), HIV and AIDS data are tabulated by
date of report to CDC. Data for the U.S. dependencies, possessions, and associated nations are included
in the table totals unless their exclusion is specified in
a footnote. The U.S. dependencies, possessions, and
associated nations comprise Puerto Rico, the U.S.
Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The
last 2 areas constitute the category of Pacific Islands,
U.S., as listed in this report.

Selection of areas with mature HIV reporting
systems for analysis of cases of HIV/AIDS and
HIV infection (not AIDS)
The inclusion of areas with mature (i.e. since at
least 2000) confidential name-based HIV reporting
for tabulation and presentation of HIV/AIDS and
HIV infection (not AIDS) data was based on the date
of the implementation of HIV reporting in the area
and the ability to calculate 4 years of reporting delays
in order to display trends reliably. For this report, 35
areas with laws or regulations requiring confidential
name-based HIV infection reporting since 2000 were
eligible for inclusion. The 35 areas are Alabama,
Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Idaho,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey,
New Mexico, New York, Nevada, North Carolina,
North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South
Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West
Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Guam, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands.

Selection of areas for analyses of reports of
HIV infection (not AIDS)
Areas included in tabulations for reports of HIV
infection (not AIDS) are based on the date of imple-

mentation of name-based HIV infection reporting
before the end of 2004. For Tables 16, 18, 20, and 22,
we used data from 42 areas to describe reports of
cases of HIV infection (not AIDS).

Age groups
For Tables 8–12 and Maps 1 and 2, age groups of
persons living with HIV/AIDS, HIV infection (not
AIDS), or AIDS are based on the person’s age as of
December 31, 2004. For Table 7, age groups of
persons who died with AIDS are based on the
person’s age at the time of death. For all other tables,
age groups are based on the person’s age at the first
documented positive HIV-antibody test result for
persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection (not AIDS),
and age at diagnosis of AIDS for persons with a
diagnosis of AIDS. The age category for adults and
adolescents comprises persons age 13 years and
older; the age category for children comprises
children younger than 13 years of age.

Race and ethnicity
In the Federal Register for October 30, 1997
[15], the Office of Management and Budget
announced the Standards for Maintaining, Collecting,
and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity,
also known as Statistical Policy Directive 15. These
standards, which superseded the 1977 standards,
reflected a change in federal policy regarding the
collection of race and ethnicity data; implementation
by January 1, 2003 was mandated. At a minimum,
data on the following race categories should be
collected:
• American Indian or Alaska Native
• Asian
• black or African American
• Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander
• white
Additionally, systems must be able to retain information when multiple racial categories are reported.
Two ethnicity categories should be collected
regardless of race:
• Hispanic
• not Hispanic.
Because data for this document were compiled
from reports to CDC through June 2005, race and
ethnicity information were collected under 2 systems.
The race and ethnicity categories in the system used
through December 2002 are maintained in this

Technical Notes

document because most case reports were submitted
under that system. Persons who reported multiple
racial categories or whose race was unknown are
included in the total numbers in Tables 1–5, 7–11,
13, and 19–23. Also, persons reported as nonHispanic may include persons whose ethnicity was
not reported.

•

Tabulation of cases of HIV/AIDS and AIDS

•

In this report, the term HIV/AIDS is used to refer
to 3 categories of cases: (1) new diagnoses of HIV
infection (not AIDS), (2) new diagnoses of HIV
infection with later diagnoses of AIDS, and (3)
concurrent diagnoses of HIV infection and AIDS.
For analyses of HIV/AIDS data, we used data from
35 areas (i.e., 33 states, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands) that have had HIV infection reporting for a
sufficient length of time (i.e., at least since 2000) to
allow for stabilization of data collection and for
adjustment of the data in order to monitor trends.
Tables 1, 2, 8, and 9 summarize cases and prevalence
of HIV/AIDS. For analysis of AIDS cases, we used
data from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, U.S.
territories and other associated nations.

Tabulation of persons living with HIV/AIDS,
HIV infection (not AIDS), and AIDS
Tabulation of persons living with HIV/AIDS,
HIV infection (not AIDS), or with AIDS (Tables 8–
12 and Maps 1 and 2) are not actual counts of cases
reported to the surveillance system. The estimates
are based on reported cases which have been
adjusted for delays in reporting of cases and deaths.

Tabulation of deaths of persons with AIDS
Tabulation of deaths of persons with AIDS
(Table 7) are not actual counts of deaths reported to
the surveillance system. The estimates are based on
reported deaths which have been adjusted for delays
in reporting.

In the Federal Register for December 27, 2000,
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
published revised standards for defining metropolitan
statistical areas (MSA) for use in federal statistical
activities [16]. These standards provided for the
identification of MSAs in the United States and
Puerto Rico and replaced and superseded the 1990
standards. The adoption of the new standards was
effective as of December 27, 2000. The OMB
announced new MSA definitions based on the new
standards and Census 2000 data on June 6, 2003 [17].
Table 15 presents reported AIDS cases, by MSA,
for areas with population ≥ 500,000. MSAs for
Table 15 are defined by the OMB according to their
most recent update of statistical areas in November
2004 [18].

Survival analyses
For the survival analyses presented in Section 4,
Table 13 and Figures 2–4, we used time analysis
methods for calculating survival versus death for
AIDS case data reported through June 30, 2004.
Table 13 was limited to AIDS cases diagnosed in
2000, and Figures 2–4 were limited to cases diagnosed during 1996–2003. Table 13 and the figures
were limited to deaths through December 2004; this
was done to allow at least 6 months for a death to be
reported by June 30, 2005, and to allow at least 1
month after AIDS diagnosis.

Transmission Categories
Transmission category is the term for the
classification of cases that summarizes a person’s
possible HIV transmission risk factors; the summary
classification results from selecting, from the presumed hierarchical order of probability, the one risk
factor most likely to have been responsible for

Reports of cases of AIDS,

infection, and HIV/AIDS

transmission. For surveillance purposes, cases of
HIV/AIDS, HIV infection (not AIDS), and AIDS are
counted only once in the hierarchy of transmission
categories. Persons with more than one reported risk
factor for HIV are classified in the transmission
category listed first in the hierarchy. The exception is
men who report sexual contact with other men and
injection drug use; this group makes up a separate
transmission category.
Persons whose transmission category is classified
as male-to-male sexual contact include men who
report sexual contact with other men (i.e., homosexual contact) and men who report sexual contact
with both men and women (i.e., bisexual contact).
Persons whose transmission category is classified
as heterosexual contact are persons who report
specific heterosexual contact with a person with, or
at increased risk for, HIV infection (e.g., an injection
drug user).
Adults and adolescents born in, or who had sex
with someone born in, a country where heterosexual
transmission was believed to be the predominant
mode of HIV transmission (formerly classified as
Pattern II countries by the World Health Organization) are no longer classified as having heterosexually
acquired HIV infection unless they meet the criteria
stated in the preceding paragraph. Similar to other
cases in persons who were reported without information about a behavioral or a transfusion risk factor for
HIV infection, these cases are classified (in the
absence of other risk factor information that would
classify them in another transmission category) as “no
risk factor reported or identified” [19]. Cases in
children whose mother was born in, or whose mother
had sex with someone born in, Pattern II countries
are now classified (in the absence of other risk factor
information that would classify them in another
transmission category) as “Mother with documented
HIV infection, a risk factor for HIV infection, or HIV
infection without a specified risk factor.”
Cases in persons with no reported exposure to
HIV through any of the routes listed in the hierarchy
of transmission categories are classified as “no risk
reported or identified.” No identified risk factor
(NIR) cases include cases that have been followed
up by local health department officials; cases in
persons whose exposure history is missing because
they died, declined to be interviewed, or were lost to
follow-up; and cases in persons who were interviewed or for whom other follow-up information
was available and no mode of exposure was identi-

fied. As of September 2000, the procedures for
investigating cases reported without risk factor
information changed from ascertaining a risk factor
for all reported cases to estimating risk factor distributions from statistical models and population-based
samples. States continue to investigate any report of
an unusual exposure to HIV and report these cases
to CDC. CDC will continue to tabulate the number
of documented unusual exposures to HIV reported
by the states.
Because recently reported cases of HIV infection or AIDS are more likely to be reported without
sufficient risk factor information, recent AIDS
incidence in some transmission categories will be
underestimated unless an adjustment is made. For
tables and figures showing the estimated cases of
HIV infection (not AIDS) and AIDS, the adjustment
of cases without risk factor information among adults
and adolescents is based on the redistributions of
transmission category, by specific sex, race, and
region, of cases that were diagnosed 3 to 10 years
prior and initially assigned to the “no identified risk
factor” category but that were later reclassified.
Similar adjustments of such cases among children
are based on transmission-category redistribution
of all cases diagnosed during that period and later
reclassified [20, 21].

Reporting Delays
Reporting delays (time between diagnosis of
HIV infection or AIDS and report to CDC) may
differ among exposure, geographic, racial/ethnic,
age, sex, and vital status categories; for some AIDS
cases, delays have been as long as several years.
Adjustments of the estimated data on HIV infection
(not AIDS) and on AIDS to account for reporting
delays are calculated by a maximum likelihood
statistical procedure. This procedure not only takes
into account the differences in reporting delays
among exposure, geographic, racial/ethnic, age, sex,
and vital status categories, it is based on the assumption that reporting delays in these categories have not
changed over time [22, 23].

Rates
Rates per 100,000 population were calculated for
the numbers of AIDS cases in 2004, as well as for
persons living with HIV infection (not AIDS) at
the end of 2004. Population denominators used to
compute these rates for the 50 states and the District

of Columbia were based on official postcensus
estimates for 2004 from the U.S. Census Bureau [24]
and bridged-race estimates for 2003 obtained from
the National Center for Health Statistics [25]. The
bridged estimates are based on the Census 2000
counts and produced under a collaborative agreement
with the U.S Census Bureau. These estimates result
from bridging the 31 race categories used in Census
2000, as specified in the 1997 Office of Management
and Budget standards [15] for the classification of
data on race and ethnicity, to the 4 race categories
specified in the 1977 standards. Population denominators for U.S. dependencies, possessions, and
associated nations were based on official postcensus
estimates and Census 2000 counts from the U.S.
Census Bureau’s International Database. Each rate is
calculated by dividing the number of cases reported
during the 12 months in 2004 (or the number of
persons living with HIV infection or with AIDS at the
end of 2004) by the 2004 population, multiplied by
100,000. The denominators used for computing age-,
sex-, and race-specific rates are computed by
applying the age, sex, and race proportions from the
bridged-race population estimates for 2000 to the
2004 postcensus estimates of the total population for
each state. When bridged-race population denominators for the U.S. dependencies, possessions, and
associated nations were not available, proportions
from the U.S. Census Bureau’s International Database for 2000 were used to estimate the age- and
sex-specific subpopulations [26].
