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.
In 2022, the states with the highest number of HIV diagnoses were Texas, California, and Florida. That year, there were a total of around 37,601 HIV diagnoses in the United States. Of these, 4,896 were diagnosed in Texas. HIV infections have been decreasing globally for many years. In the year 2000, there were 2.8 million new infections worldwide, but this number had decreased to around 1.3 million new infections by 2023. The number of people living with HIV remains fairly steady, but the number of those that have died due to AIDS has reached some of its lowest peaks in a decade. Currently, there is no functional cure for HIV or AIDS, but improvements in therapies and treatments have enabled those living with HIV to have a much improved quality of life.
The following slide sets are available to download for presentational use:
New HIV diagnoses, AIDS and deaths are collected from HIV outpatient clinics, laboratories and other healthcare settings. Data relating to people living with HIV is collected from HIV outpatient clinics. Data relates to England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland, unless stated.
HIV testing, pre-exposure prophylaxis, and post-exposure prophylaxis data relates to activity at sexual health services in England only.

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 ****. That number has since decreased to *** per 100,000 as of 2023. 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. Among all U.S. states, Georgia, followed by Florida and Louisiana, had the highest rates of new HIV diagnoses in 2022. 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.

People aged 15 to 59 years seen at HIV services in the UK, expressed as a rate per 1,000 population.Data is presented by area of residence, and exclude people diagnosed with HIV in England who are resident in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland or abroad.RationaleThe geographical distribution of people seen for HIV care and treatment is not uniform across or within regions in England. Knowledge of local diagnosed HIV prevalence and identification of local risk groups can be used to help direct resources for HIV prevention and treatment.In 2008, http://www.bhiva.org/HIV-testing-guidelines.aspx recommended that Local Authority and NHS bodies consider implementing routine HIV testing for all general medical admissions as well as new registrants in primary care where the diagnosed HIV prevalence exceeds 2 in 1,000 population aged 15 to 59 years.In 2017, guidelines were updated by https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/NG60 which is co-badged with Public Health England. This guidance continues to define high HIV prevalence local authorities as those with a diagnosed HIV prevalence of between 2 and 5 per 1,000 and extremely high prevalence local authorities as those with a diagnosed HIV prevalence of 5 or more per 1,000 people aged 15 to 59 years.When this is applied to national late HIV diagnosis data, it shows that two-thirds of late HIV diagnoses occur in high-prevalence and extremely-high-prevalence local authorities. This means that if this recommendation is successfully applied in high and extremely-high-prevalence areas, it could potentially affect two-thirds of late diagnoses nationally.Local authorities should find out their diagnosed prevalence published in UKHSA's http://fingertips.phe.org.uk/profile/sexualhealth , as well as that of surrounding areas and adapt their strategy for HIV testing using the national guidelines.Commissioners can use these data to plan and ensure access to comprehensive and specialist local HIV care and treatment for HIV diagnosed individuals according to the http://www.medfash.org.uk/uploads/files/p17abl6hvc4p71ovpkr81ugsh60v.pdf and http://www.bhiva.org/monitoring-guidelines.aspx .Definition of numeratorThe number of people (aged 15 to 59 years) living with a diagnosed HIV infection and accessing HIV care at an NHS service in the UK and who are resident in England.Definition of denominatorResident population aged 15 to 59.The denominators for 2011 to 2023 are taken from the respective 2011 to 2023 Office for National Statistics (ONS) revised population estimates from the 2021 Census.Further details on the ONS census are available from the https://www.ons.gov.uk/census .CaveatsData is presented by geographical area of residence. Where data on residence were unavailable, residence have been assigned to the local health area of care.Every effort is made to ensure accuracy and completeness of the data, including web-based reporting with integrated checks on data quality. The overall data quality is high as the dataset is used for commissioning purposes and for the national allocation of funding. However, responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of data lies with the reporting service.Data is as reported but rely on ‘record linkage’ to integrate data and ‘de-duplication’ to prevent double counting of the same individual. The data may not be representative in areas where residence information is not known for a significant proportion of people accessing HIV care.Data supplied for previous years are updated on an annual basis due to clinic or laboratory resubmissions and improvements to data cleaning. Data may therefore differ from previous publications.Values are benchmarked against set thresholds and categorised into the following groups: <2 (low), 2 to 5 (high) and≥5 (extremely high). These have been determined by developments in national testing guidelines.The data reported in 2020 and 2021 is impacted by the reconfiguration of sexual health services during the national response to COVID-19.
These data were reported to the NYC DOHMH by March 31, 2021 This dataset includes data on new diagnoses of HIV and AIDS in NYC for the calendar years 2016 through 2020.

As of 2021, the prevalence of HIV in Spain was 0.3 percent of the adult population between 15 and 49 years.
