Note. These numbers do not represent reported case counts. Rather, these numbers are point estimates, which result from adjustments of reported case counts. The reported case counts have been adjusted for reporting delays and for redistribution of cases in persons initially reported without an identified risk factor, but not for incomplete reporting.
a From the beginning of the epidemic through 2006.
b Heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection.
c Includes hemophilia, blood transfusion, perinatal exposure, and risk factor not reported or not identified.
d Includes hemophilia, blood transfusion, and risk factor not reported or not identified.
e Includes persons of unknown race or multiple races and persons of unknown sex. Because column totals were calculated independently of the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may not sum to the column total.
f Includes 2,082 persons of unknown race or multiple races, 261 persons of unknown state of residence, and 2 persons who were residents of other areas.
