* These numbers do not represent the actual number of persons
living with AIDS. Rather, these numbers are point estimates of the
number of persons living with AIDS derived by subtracting the
estimated cumulative number of deaths in persons with AIDS from the
estimated cumulative number of persons with AIDS diagnosed.
Estimated AIDS incidence and estimated deaths are adjusted for
reporting delays, but not for incomplete reporting. The year 2001
is the most recent year for which reliable estimates are
available. § Because column totals were calculated independently of
the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may
not sum to the column total. Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention |
