Note. These numbers do not represent actual cases in persons with a diagnosis of AIDS. Rather, these numbers are point estimates of cases diagnosed that have been adjusted for reporting delays and for redistribution of cases in persons initially reported without an identified risk.The estimates have not been adjusted for incomplete reporting.

a Includes 189 persons whose place of birth is not among those listed and 976 whose place of birth is unknown.
b Includes hemophilia, blood transfusion, perinatal, and risk not reported or not identified.
c Because column totals were calculated independently of the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may not sum to the column total.
