(1) HIV Infection = New cases of HIV infection (both
HIV (non-AIDS) and AIDS at first diagnosis) diagnosed within a given calendar
year. HIV (non-AIDS) = New cases of HIV infection (excluding AIDS at first
diagnosis) diagnosed within a given calendar year. AIDS = All new cases
of AIDS diagnosed within a given calendar year.
(2) The cumulative rate is calculated by dividing the
cumulative number of cases by the estimated state population and multiplying
by 100,000. Rates for individual calendar years were calculated using
2000 U.S. Census population data (2000-2003) and 1993-1999 population
estimates were calculated using interpolation between U.S. Census 1990
data and U.S. Census 2000 data.
Please Note: The sum of HIV (non-AIDS) cases and AIDS
cases will be greater than the number of cases of HIV Infection in a given
year. The difference occurs because, unlike the HIV Infection category,
the AIDS category includes both cases that are AIDS at first diagnosis
as well as those cases that progress from HIV (non-AIDS) to AIDS during
the year (see above definitions).
Numbers and rates exclude federal and private prisoners and refugees in
the HIV-Positive Refugee Resettlement Program.

(1) HIV infection includes all new cases of HIV infection
(both HIV (non-AIDS) and AIDS at first diagnosis) among Minnesota residents
in 2003.
(2) African-born Blacks are reported separately from
other Blacks (born in the U.S. or elsewhere). Other includes multi-racial
persons and persons with unknown race.
(3) Rates calculated using U.S. Census 2000 data. Accurate
population estimates for Black, African-born persons living in Minnesota
are unavailable – anecdotal (50,000) and 2000 U.S. Census data (35,188)
) were used to create the range of rates reported for African-born persons.
The population estimate for Black, African-American persons (167,784)
was calculated by subtracting the U.S. Census estimate for African-born
persons (35,188) from the total Black population (202,972). Note that
this assumes that all African-born persons are Black (as opposed to another
race).
(4) U.S. Census 2000 data necessary to calculate race-specific
rates (specifically a breakdown of the state population by "Race
alone or in Combination with one or more races" by gender) have not
yet been released for Minnesota. When these data become available this
table will be updated.
Numbers exclude federal and private prisoners and refugees in the HIV-Positive
Refugee Resettlement Program.
MSM = Men who have sex with men. IDU = Injecting drug use. Heterosexual
= For males: heterosexual contact with a female known to be HIV+, an injecting
drug user, or a hemophiliac/blood product or organ transplant recipient.
For females: heterosexual contact with a male known to be HIV+, bisexual,
an injecting drug user, or a hemophiliac/blood product or organ transplant
recipient. Perinatal = Mother to child HIV transmission; birth may have
occurred in a previous year. Unspecified = Cases who did not acknowledge
any of the risks listed above. No Interview = Cases who refused to be,
could not be or have not yet been interviewed.

NOTE: Cases of perinatally-acquired HIV/AIDS were only included in the
table if the child's residence at the time of birth was reported as Minnesota.
(1) Transmission of HIV from mother to child during
pregnancy, at birth, and/or during breastfeeding.
(2) African-born Blacks are reported separately
from other Blacks (born in the U.S. or elsewhere).
(3) Mothers' places of birth include: Africa
(3), Asia/Pacific Islands (2), Latin America/Caribbean (2).
(4) The cumulative rate of HIV transmission
is calculated by dividing the total number of perinatally-acquired HIV
infections by the total number of births in a category and multiplying
by 100. Rates calculated only for categories where the cumulative number
of births is 30 or greater.
