  • Diagnosis of HIV: The term refers to a person diagnosed with HIV, regardless of disease at diagnosis (HIV, AIDS, or unknown).
  • HIV infection, stage 3 (AIDS): The terms refers specifically to persons diagnosed with HIV whose infection was classified as AIDS during a given year or whose infection has ever been classified as AIDS (for prevalence and deaths).
  • Transmission category: The term for summarizing the multiple risk factors that a person may have had by selecting the one most likely to have resulted in HIV transmission. For surveillance purposes, persons with more than one reported risk factor for HIV infection are classified in the transmission category listed first in a hierarchy of transmission categories, and therefore counted only once. The exception is men who had sex with men (MSM) and injected drugs; this group makes up a separate transmission category.
  • HIV prevalence: HIV prevalence data represent persons who were living with a diagnosis of HIV in the reporting area through the end of the calendar year (regardless of where they were diagnosed).
  • HIV incidence: The estimated number of persons newly infected with HIV during a specified time period.
