7. In the 40 states and 5 U.S. dependent areas with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since at least January 2006, the estimated rate of diagnoses of HIV infection among adults and adolescents was 21.1 per 100,000 population in The rate for adults and adolescents diagnosed with HIV infection ranged from zero per 100,000 in American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands to 40.6 per 100,000 in Georgia.

8. The upper curve on the line graph represents the estimated number of AIDS diagnoses in the United States and dependent areas from ; the lower curve represents the estimated number of deaths of adults and adolescents with an AIDS diagnosis during this time period. The peak in AIDS diagnoses during 1993 can be associated with the expansion of the AIDS surveillance case definition implemented in January The overall declines in new AIDS cases and deaths of persons with AIDS are due in part to the success of highly active antiretroviral therapies, introduced in 1996.
In recent years, AIDS diagnoses and deaths of persons with AIDS have continued to decrease.
All displayed data have been estimated. Estimated numbers resulted from statistical adjustment that accounted for reporting delays, but not for incomplete reporting.
Deaths of persons with an AIDS diagnosis may be due to any cause (may not be AIDS-related). Deaths of persons with an AIDS diagnosis are classified as adult or adolescent based on age at death. 8
