| 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 are adjusted for
reporting delays and for redistribution of cases in persons initially
reported without an identified risk. The estimates do
not include adjustment for incomplete reporting. |
| a |
Includes persons with a diagnosis of AIDS
from the beginning of the epidemic through 2002. |
| b |
Includes hemophilia, blood transfusion,
perinatal, and risk factor not reported or not identified. |
| c |
Includes hemophilia, blood transfusion,
and risk factor not reported or not identified. |
| d |

Because column totals were calculated independently of the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may not sum to the column total. |
