Slide 27. Estimated HIV Coinfection in Persons Reported with TB, United States, 1993–2012

Slide 27. Estimated HIV Coinfection in Persons Reported with TB, United States, 1993–2012. This slide provides minimum estimates of HIV coinfection among persons reported with TB from 1993 through 2012. Since the addition of the request for HIV status to the individual TB case report in 1993, incomplete reporting has provided a challenge to calculating reliable estimates. Results from the cross-matching of TB and AIDS registries have been used to supplement reported HIV test results. For all ages, the estimated percentage of HIV coinfection in persons who reported HIV testing (positive, negative, or indeterminate test results) with TB decreased from 49% to 7% overall from 1993 – 2012, and from 64% to 12% among persons aged 25 to 44 years during this period.
