People Newly Diagnosed with HIV

What does this measure?

The number of people newly diagnosed with HIV per 100,000 residents.

Why is this important?

HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, is a serious though preventable infection that has a disproportionate impact on ethnic and racial minorities. Although there is no cure, new treatments are helping people with HIV live longer. Still, these treatment regimens are complex, cause serious side effects, and become ineffective as HIV mutates.

How is the region performing?

In 2022, there were 3.8 people newly diagnosed with HIV per 100,000 residents in the Mid-Hudson Valley region, lower than the state (excluding NYC) rate of 5.3. The rate decreased by 64% in the region since 2016. Putnam had the highest rate per 100,000 residents (5.1), followed by Columbia (4.9). Sullivan and Greene counties had the lowest rates (2.5 and 0, respectively).

Notes about the data

Figures do not include prisoners, as counts with prisoners increased rates dramatically for counties with correctional facilities. Persons newly diagnosed with HIV are classified where they lived at the time of diagnosis. Data for this indicator are expected to be released in the fourth quarter, with a two-year delay.
