Slide 1: Estimated Number of AIDS Cases among Adults and Adolescents, by Transmission Category, 1985–2006—United States and Dependent Areas
The estimated number of AIDS cases diagnosed among injection drug users in the United States and dependent areas increased during 1985-1993, and decreased thereafter.  During 1993, an estimated 23,364 AIDS cases were diagnosed among injection drug users (IDUs).  In 2006, an estimated 7,153 AIDS cases were diagnosed among IDUs.  Among men who have sex with men and who also inject drugs, 6,300 received a diagnosis of AIDS in 1992. After 1992, a decreasing trend occurred in this group; in 2006, an estimated 1,844 men who have sex with men and who also inject drugs received a diagnosis of AIDS.

Slide 6: Proportion of AIDS Cases among Adults and Adolescents, by IDU-related Transmission Category, 2006—United States and Dependent Areas

Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as transmission categories related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user. In 2006, an estimated 10,700 AIDS cases related to injection drug use were diagnosed among adults and adolescents in the United States and dependent areas. Of these IDU-related diagnoses: 67% were attributed to injection drug use; 17% to male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and 16% to heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.

Slide 7: Proportion of AIDS Cases among Adults and Adolescents, by IDU-related Transmission Category, 2006—United States and Dependent Areas

Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as transmission categories related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user. For all age groups, most (67%) of the IDU-related AIDS cases diagnosed in 2006 were among injection drug users in the United States and dependent areas. The proportion of AIDS diagnoses attributed to heterosexual contact with an injection drug user decreased with increasing age. Except for AIDS cases diagnosed among 13-19 year olds, the proportions of AIDS diagnoses attributed to either heterosexual sex with an injection drug user or MSM & IDU were generally of the same magnitude.

Slide 8: Proportion of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Injection Drug Users and Heterosexual Sex Partners of Injection Drug Users, by Race/Ethnicity and Age Group at Diagnosis, 2006—United States and Dependent Areas

Men who have sex with men and who also inject drugs may have become infected by either the sexual or the parenteral route. By contrast, heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users most likely became infected by the sexual route. To exclude infections that may have been transmitted sexually between men, only injection drug users and heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users are included in this slide. In 2006, an estimated 8,857 cases of AIDS were diagnosed among injection drug users and their heterosexual sex partners in the United States and dependent areas.  Blacks (not Hispanic) accounted for most (53%) of this subset of IDU–related diagnoses in 2006 in the United States and dependent areas. Hispanics accounted for 23% and whites (not Hispanic) for 22% of this subset of IDU-related AIDS diagnoses. In all age groups, Asians/Pacific Islanders and American Indians/Alaska Natives each accounted for 1% of this subset of IDU-related AIDS diagnoses (data not shown).

Slide 9: Proportion of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Males, IDU-related Transmission Category and by Race/Ethnicity, 2002–2006—50 States and DC

Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as transmission categories related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.  From 2002-2006, an estimated 37,286 AIDS cases related to injection drug use were diagnosed among adult and adolescent males in the fifty states and District of Columbia.  The greatest number (19,094) of IDU-related diagnoses among males was among blacks; over twice as many cases were diagnosed in black males as in white males, and nearly three times as many as in Hispanic males.  Across racial/ethnic groups, the greatest proportion of AIDS cases was attributable to injection drug use; for example, 70% of the 7,450 cases diagnosed among Hispanic males were attributable to injection drug use. Similarly, the second greatest proportion of AIDS cases was attributable to male-to-male sexual contact.  Across racial/ethnic groups, heterosexual contact with an injection drug user was the least common transmission category.  For example, 9% of the 19,094 cases diagnosed among black males were most likely transmitted by heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.  Other than American Indian/Alaska Native males, white males had the smallest proportion (53%) of IDU-related AIDS diagnoses attributed to injection drug use and the greatest proportion (41%) of these diagnoses were attributed to male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use.

Slide 10: Proportion of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Females, by IDU-related Transmission Category and Race/Ethnicity, 2002–2006—50 States and DC

Among adult and adolescent females, one standard transmission category and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as transmission categories related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these two categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.  From 2002-2006, an estimated 19,203 IDU-related AIDS cases were diagnosed among adult and adolescent females in the fifty states and District of Columbia.  The greatest number (11,771) of IDU-related diagnoses among females was among blacks; nearly three times as many were among black females than among white females, and over four times as many as among Hispanic females.   Across racial/ethnic groups, the distribution of IDU-related HIV/AIDS diagnoses among females were comparable; an exception to this pattern was observed among the relatively low number of AIDS cases diagnosed among Asian/Pacific Islander females, with transmission category proportions more evenly divided between injection drug use and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.

Slide 12: Estimated Number of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Injection Drug Users and Heterosexual Sex Partners of Injection Drug Users, by Region, 2006—50 States and DC

Men who have sex with men and who also injected drugs may have become infected by either the sexual or the parenteral route. By contrast, heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users most likely become infected by the sexual route. To exclude infections that may have been transmitted sexually between men, only injection drug users and heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users are included in this slide. In 2006, an estimated 8,465 cases of AIDS were diagnosed among injection drug users and heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users residing in the fifty states and District of Columbia.  In 2006, the South had the greatest number of AIDS diagnoses among injection drug users (2,743). The South had the greatest number of AIDS diagnoses among heterosexual sex partners of injection drug users (844). The Midwest and the West had the fewest number of diagnoses among injection drug users and their heterosexual sex partners.  Inter-region comparisons of case counts should be made cautiously because the four regions vary by number of jurisdictions and by population size.

Regions of residence at time of diagnosis are defined as follows.  Northeast: Connecticut; Maine; Massachusetts; New Hampshire; New Jersey; New York; Pennsylvania; Rhode Island; and Vermont.  Midwest: Illinois; Indiana; Iowa; Kansas; Michigan; Minnesota; Missouri; Nebraska; North Dakota; Ohio; South Dakota; and Wisconsin.  South: Alabama; Arkansas; Delaware; District of Columbia; Florida; Georgia; Kentucky; Louisiana; Maryland; Mississippi; North Carolina; Oklahoma; South Carolina; Tennessee; Texas; Virginia; and West Virginia. West: Alaska; Arizona; California; Colorado; Hawaii; Idaho; Montana; Nevada; New Mexico; Oregon; Utah; Washington; and Wyoming.

Slide 13: Estimated Number of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Injection Drug Users, by Region and Race/Ethnicity, 2006—50 States and DC

In 2006, an estimated 6,830 cases of AIDS were diagnosed among injection drug users residing in the fifty states and District of Columbia.  Of these AIDS cases, the greatest number of diagnoses among injection drug users (IDUs) was among residents of the South (2,743), followed by residents of the Northeast (2,697). In all regions except the West, the largest proportion of AIDS diagnoses among IDUs was among blacks (not Hispanic). In the Northeast, blacks (not Hispanic) accounted for 1,307 (48%), and Hispanics accounted for 776 (29%) of AIDS diagnoses among IDUs.  Inter-region comparisons of case counts should be made cautiously because the four regions vary by number of jurisdictions and by population size.  In the South, blacks accounted for 1,847 (67%) of AIDS diagnoses among IDUs.  

Regions of residence at time of diagnosis are defined as follows.  Northeast: Connecticut; Maine; Massachusetts; New Hampshire; New Jersey; New York; Pennsylvania; Rhode Island; and Vermont.  Midwest: Illinois; Indiana; Iowa; Kansas; Michigan; Minnesota; Missouri; Nebraska; North Dakota; Ohio; South Dakota; and Wisconsin.  South: Alabama; Arkansas; Delaware; District of Columbia; Florida; Georgia; Kentucky; Louisiana; Maryland; Mississippi; North Carolina; Oklahoma; South Carolina; Tennessee; Texas; Virginia; and West Virginia. West: Alaska; Arizona; California; Colorado; Hawaii; Idaho; Montana; Nevada; New Mexico; Oregon; Utah; Washington; and Wyoming.

Slide 14: Estimated Number of Adult and Adolescent Injection Drug Users Living with AIDS, by Sex, 2006—United States and Dependent Areas

In 2006, an estimated 66,825 male and 32,617 female adult and adolescent injection drug users in the United States and dependent areas were living with AIDS. New York was the state with the greatest number of injection drug users living with AIDS: 24,542 (16,488 males and 8,053 females).  Burdens are exceptionally heavy in jurisdictions such as Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico; D.C. ranks thirteenth by number of injection drug users living with AIDS but only fifty-first by number of residents (data not shown), and Puerto Rico ranks eighth by number of injection drug users living with AIDS  but only twenty-seventh by number of residents (data not shown).  The state with the fewest injection drug users living with AIDS was North Dakota.

Slide 25: Proportion of Reported Cases of HIV Infection (not AIDS) among Adults and Adolescents by IDU-related Transmission Category, 2006—50 Areas

This slide shows data from 50 jurisdictions (45 states and 5 dependent areas) with confidential, named-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006. These data have not been adjusted for reporting delays or missing risk factor information. Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as transmission categories related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user. In 2006, these 50 jurisdictions reported 8,638 IDU-related cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) among adults and adolescents. Of these IDU-related cases, 65% were attributable to injection drug use, 23% to male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use, and 12% to heterosexual contact with an injection drug user.

The 50 jurisdictions with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006, are Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.

Slide 26: Proportion of Reported Cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) among Adults and Adolescents, by IDU-Related Transmission Category and Age Group, 2006—50 Areas

This slide shows data from the 50 jurisdictions (45 states and 5 dependent areas) with confidential named-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006. These data have not been adjusted for reporting delays or missing risk factor information. Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user. For all age groups, most (65%) of the IDU-related cases of HIV infection (not AIDS) reported from the 50 jurisdictions were attributable to injection drug use. The proportion of IDU-related cases among injection drug users increased with increasing age.  The proportion of IDU-related cases among men who have sex with men and who also injected drugs decreased with increasing age.

The 50 jurisdictions with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006, are Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.

Slide 27: Reported Cases of HIV Infection (not AIDS) Related to Injection Drug Use among Adults and Adolescents, by Race/Ethnicity and Age Group, Cumulative through 2006—50 Areas

This slide shows data from the 50 jurisdictions (45 states and 5 dependent areas) with confidential named-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006. These data have not been adjusted for reporting delays or missing risk factor information. Two standard transmission categories and one expanded transmission category are collectively referred to as related to injection drug use (IDU-related), and these three categories are mutually exclusive: injection drug use; male-to-male sexual contact and injection drug use; and heterosexual contact with an injection drug user. Of 58,277 cases of IDU-related HIV infection (not AIDS) reported from the 50 jurisdictions cumulatively through 2006, 47% were among blacks (not Hispanic), 30% were among whites (not Hispanic), and 20% were among Hispanics. The proportion of IDU-related cases among whites generally decreased with increasing age. The proportion of IDU-related cases among blacks generally increased with increasing age. The proportion of IDU-related cases among Hispanics was similar for all age groups. Asians/Pacific Islanders (all age groups) accounted for less than 1%, and American Indians/Alaska Natives (all age groups) accounted for 1% of IDU-related cases (data not shown).

The 50 jurisdictions with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting as of December 31, 2006, are Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.
