Slide 1: Estimated Numbers and Percentages of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Men Who Have Sex with Men 1985–2007—United States and Dependent Areas
 
The bars in this graph represent the estimated number of AIDS cases diagnosed by year in the United States and dependent areas during 1985–2007 among men who have sex with men (MSM). The number of AIDS cases among MSM peaked in 1992 and steadily decreased until 1999.

The line in this graph represents the percentage of all AIDS cases among adults and adolescents that is attributed to male-to-male sexual contact. In 1985, MSM accounted for 65% of cases, but by 1998, MSM accounted for 40% of cases. 

Note:
The data have been adjusted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information. Data on male-to-male sexual contact exclude cases among men who reported sex with other men and injection drug use.

Slide 2: Estimated AIDS Cases in Males, Cumulative through 2007—50 States and DC
 
Through 2007, AIDS had been diagnosed for a cumulative estimated total of 1,009,219 adults and adolescents in the 50 States and District of Columbia.  Most (80%) AIDS cases in adults and adolescents have been in males. Among males with AIDS, 60% were attributed to male-to-male sexual contact. The percentage of AIDS cases among males attributed to male-to-male sexual contact was even larger (66%) among those aged 13 to 24 years. During 2007, male-to-male sexual contact was the most frequently reported transmission category—accounting for 47% of all AIDS cases diagnosed that year.

Note:
The data have been adjusted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information. Data on male-to-male sexual contact exclude cases among men who reported sex with other men and injection drug use.

Slide 3: Estimated Numbers of AIDS Cases and Deaths among Men Who Have Sex with Men 1985–2007—United States and Dependent Areas
                                        
The upper line represents the estimated number of AIDS cases diagnosed in the United States and dependent areas during 1985–2007 among men who have sex with men (MSM). The lower line represents the estimated number of deaths among the same group during the same period.

The peak in new AIDS diagnoses among MSM during 1992–1993 was associated with the expansion of the AIDS surveillance case definition, which was implemented in January 1993. Among MSM, the overall decline in new AIDS cases and deaths is due in part to the success of highly active antiretroviral therapy, which became widely available during the mid-1990s.

Note:
The data have been adjusted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information. Data exclude cases among men who reported sex with other men and injection drug use.

Slide 4: Estimated Numbers of HIV/AIDS Cases among Adults and Adolescents, by Transmission Category 1994–2007—25 States
 
This graph shows the trends, by transmission category, in the estimated number of HIV/AIDS cases diagnosed from 1994 through 2007 among adults and adolescents in 25 states with confidential name-based HIV reporting during that period. For each of those years, the largest number of cases was in men who have sex with men. Throughout the late 1990s, the number of cases attributed to male-to-male sexual contact declined steadily. However, from 2001 through 2007, the number of new cases attributed to that transmission category increased.

Note:
The following 25 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection surveillance since at least 1994: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

The data have been adjusted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information. Data on male-to-male sexual contact exclude cases among men who reported sex with other men and injection drug use.

Slide 5: Estimated Numbers and Percentages of HIV/AIDS Cases among Adults and Adolescents, by Transmission Category 2007—34 States

In 2007, more than half (53%, or 22,472) of all estimated HIV/AIDS cases in 34 states with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting were attributed to male-to-male sexual contact. High-risk heterosexual contact was the second largest transmission category: 32% of cases.

Note:
The following 34 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection surveillance since at least 2003: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Slide 6: Estimated Numbers of AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Men Who Have Sex with Men, by Race/Ethnicity 1985–2007—United States and Dependent Areas
 
This graph shows the racial/ethnic trends in estimated AIDS cases in the United States and dependent areas diagnosed during 1985–2007 among men who have sex with men (MSM). Rates by race and ethnicity, important for understanding the impact of the epidemic on racial/ethnic groups, are not presented due to the difficulty in obtaining the total number of MSM in each race/ethnicity category.

Noteworthy is the decline from 1992 through 2001 in AIDS cases among white MSM. Despite this decline, the largest number of AIDS cases each year was among white MSM.

The second largest number of AIDS cases was in black/African American MSM, followed by Hispanic/Latino MSM. Despite the fact that there are lower numbers of AIDS cases in MSM who were black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, or American Indian/Alaska Native than among white MSM, the rates of AIDS in the general population are higher for these races/ethnicities, so it is likely that the rates would be higher for MSM of these races/ethnicities.

Note:
Hispanics/Latinos can be of any race. Asian/Pacific Islander legacy cases are cases that were collected under the old race/ethnicity classification system. Asian/Pacific Islander legacy cases are included in the totals for Asians. 

The data have been adjusted for reporting delays and missing risk-factor information. Data exclude cases among men who reported sex with other men and injection drug use.

Slide 7: Percentages of Estimated HIV/AIDS Cases among Adult and Adolescent Men Who Have Sex with Men by Race/Ethnicity, 1985–2007—25 States

The racial/ethnic distribution of HIV/AIDS cases among men who have sex with men (MSM) has changed over time. In the 25 states with confidential name-based HIV infection reporting since 1994, the percentage of white MSM decreased from 54% to 43% of all MSM with HIV/AIDS. The percentage of black/African American MSM with HIV/AIDS increased slightly—from 39% to 42%. The percentage of Hispanic/Latino MSM with HIV/AIDS doubled—from 6% in 1994 to 12% in 2007. Although the number of HIV/AIDS cases in American Indian/Alaska Native MSM is small, the percentage of cases in American Indian/Alaska Native MSM increased (from 0.4 to 0.6%), and the percentage of cases in Asian MSM quadrupled (0.3 to 1.3%) during 1994 through 2007.

Note:
The following 25 states have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based HIV infection surveillance since at least 1994: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
