HIV/AIDS deaths in the U.S. have dropped significantly in recent years. In 1995, the death rate from HIV per 100,000 people was 16.2. That number has since decreased to 1.3 per 100,000 as of 2022. The reduction in the HIV death rate in the U.S. can be attributed to an increase in access to HIV medications. HIV/AIDS in the U.S. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) cause a systemic viral infection that damages the immune system. AIDS is a syndrome that is caused by HIV. AIDS is when the immune system is severely weakened by HIV and the body can no longer fight off infections. The number of AIDS diagnoses in the U.S. has decreased significantly in recent years. Among all U.S. states, Georgia, followed by Louisiana, had the highest rates of new HIV diagnoses in 2021. HIV/AIDS treatments in the U.S. HIV/AIDS treatments include antiretroviral medications to reduce the levels of HIV within the body. The largest funders for HIV/AIDS medications and research are the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Ryan White Program. The top HIV drug worldwide, based on revenue generated in 2023 was Biktarvy. Around the world, access to antiretroviral treatment has increased dramatically in recent years, a huge step in reducing the number of HIV-related deaths. There is currently no cure for HIV.

UNAIDS estimated that there were some 630,000 people worldwide that died from acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in 2023. This statistic depicts the total number of annual AIDS-related deaths worldwide from 2000 to 2023. HIV/AIDS burden A majority of countries with the highest burden due to HIV and AIDS are in Africa- in 2023, the highest number of AIDS-related deaths occurred in South Africa and Nigeria and the highest prevalence of HIV was found in Eswatini. Although access to life-saving antiretroviral therapy treatment (ART) has increased globally over recent years, many individuals living with HIV still lack access to ART. Barriers and interventions In part due to the development of ART, the number of people living with HIV worldwide is continuing to increase, reaching almost 40 million in 2023. Important public health measures to combat the burden of the disease include a combination of biomedical and behavioral interventions such as pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis, and context-specific structural interventions to reduce barriers to supplies and education. One prominent barrier faced by those living with HIV is stigma, which can often cause disadvantages in many areas of life, including employment, use of health services, and social support.

In 2023, South Africa and Nigeria had the highest number of deaths due to AIDS worldwide, with around 50 thousand and 45 thousand such deaths, respectively. African countries account for eight of the top 10 countries with the highest number of AIDS-related deaths worldwide. AIDS-related deaths worldwide have been gradually declining over the past decade, decreasing from 1.3 million deaths in 2010 to 630 thousand deaths in 2023. HIV/AIDS HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is an infectious sexually transmitted disease that is transmitted via exposure to infected semen, blood, vaginal and anal fluids and breast milk. HIV weakens the human immune system, resulting in the affected person being unable to fight off opportunistic infections. The top 15 countries worldwide with the highest prevalence of new HIV infections as of 2023 were all African. HIV treatment Although there is currently no effective cure for HIV, death can be prevented by taking HIV antiretroviral therapy (ART). Access to antiretroviral therapy worldwide has significantly increased in the past decade. As of 2023, around 30.7 million people with HIV worldwide were receiving ART. The leading countries with the highest percentage of HIV-infected children who were receiving ART were Eswatini, Kenya, and Lesotho.

This data set includes tables on persons living with HIV/AIDS, newly diagnosed HIV cases and all cause deaths in HIV/AIDS cases by gender, age, race/ethnicity and transmission category. In all tables, cases are reported as of December 31 of the given year, as reported by January 9, 2019, to allow a minimum of 12 months reporting delay. Gender is determined by both current gender and sex at birth variables; transgender values are assigned when current gender is identified as "Transgender" or when a discrepancy is identified between a person's sex at birth and their current gender (e.g., cases where sex at birth is "Male" and current gender is "Female" will become Transgender: Male to Female.) Prior to 2003, Asian and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders were classified as one combined group. In order to present these race/ethnicities separately, living cases recorded under this combined classification were split and redistributed according to their expected proportional population representation estimated from post-2003 data.

In 2023, India reported an estimate of 36 thousand annual AIDS related deaths (ARD) across the country. Male deaths from HIV/AIDS amounted to nearly 24 thousand, accounting for approximately 67 percent of AIDS related deaths in India that year.

The states with the highest rates of HIV diagnoses in 2021 included Georgia, Louisiana, and Florida. However, the states with the highest number of people with HIV were California, Texas, and Florida. In California, there were around 4,399 people diagnosed with HIV. HIV/AIDS diagnoses The number of diagnoses of HIV/AIDS in the United States has continued to decrease in recent years. In 2021, there were an estimated 35,769 HIV diagnoses in the U.S. down from 38,433 diagnoses in the year 2017. In total, since the beginning of the epidemic in 1981 there have been around 1.25 million diagnoses in the United States. Deaths from HIV Similarly, the death rate from HIV has also decreased significantly over the past few decades. In 2019, there were only 1.4 deaths from HIV per 100,000 population, the lowest rate since the epidemic began. However, the death rate varies greatly depending on race or ethnicity, with the death rate from HIV for African Americans reaching 19.1 per 100,000 population in 2020.
