Notes

  • Data Source: NYS HIV Surveillance System, reported as of March 2024.
  • Data for the year 2020 should be interpreted with caution due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on access to HIV testing, care-related services, and case surveillance activities.
  • Data are suppressed to maintain the confidentiality of individuals represented in the data. See the Data Sources page for additional details.
  • Data reported here for New York City are based on the NYS HIV Surveillance System. There may be slight differences between these numbers and the data reported by the New York City DOHMH HIV Surveillance Registry.
  • Caution is advised in comparing data from different sources and other dashboard pages. Measures (e.g. the number of persons newly diagnosed with HIV and the number of persons virally suppressed among PLWDH) presented elsewhere may be calculated differently or use different information, even though their titles are similar.
  • Statewide and Rest of State counts include persons who were incarcerated. Ryan White Region and county level counts exclude persons who were incarcerated.
  • Starting with analyses of 2020 data, NYS implemented a new race/ethnicity classification methodology. This change reduces misclassification, with notable decreases in the percentage of individuals classified as Multi-Race or Hispanic, and increases in percentages of other categories. In 2021, an additional revision of the race/ethnicity classification methodology was introduced in accordance with an OMB directive separating the “Asian and Pacific Islander” category into two distinct categories, now called “Asian” and “Native Hawaiian / Pacific Islander.”
  • Unknown race/ethnicity data is not shown at the region and county levels due to low numbers. Multi-race and Native American race data and Pediatric and Other/Unknown transmission risk data are not shown at the county level due to low numbers.
  • When filtering by Sex, Age, Race, or Risk at the Ryan White Region or county level, trend data are not shown for some demographic/risk groups if the number of PLWDH in any given year for that group is <10.
  • Viral suppression by geographic region is best presented as a percent of PLWDH rather than as a standalone number. To view a map of the percent of persons virally suppressed, visit the HIV Care Cascades in NYS page.
