New HIV diagnoses among persons first diagnosed in the UK per 100,000 population (21958) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the rate of HIV diagnoses among people of all ages newly diagnosed in the UK with no previous diagnoses abroad reported, expressed as a rate per 100,000 population. Data is presented by area of residence and exclude people diagnosed with HIV in England who are living in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland or abroad.
New HIV diagnosis is not synonymous with incidence; however, it provides a timely insight into the onward HIV transmission in a country and consequently allows targeting efforts to reduce transmission. Although majority of HIV diagnoses are made in genitourinary medicine (GUM) services, HIV testing has been introduced in a variety of different medical services and non-medical settings, including the expansion of self-sampling or self-testing.
Figures are from the HIV and AIDS Reporting System (HARS).
Numbers between 1 and 4 within a population less than 10,000 are suppressed. Where this occurs for Isles of Scilly or City of London, then the values are combined with those for Cornwall or Hackney respectively.
