CDC HIV Continuum Measures
 Aligns with NHAS 2020 indicator definitions
 Represents the best available data for measuring progress
 Uses National HIV Surveillance System (NHSS) data which meet the NHAS
indicator data source criteria
– Timely and routine
– Can stratify by demographic characteristics
– Prioritized data sources that are available at the state level to allow
states ability to monitor progress toward Strategy goals in their
jurisdictions
 Uses different denominators for each measure

Calculation of Indicators
 Prevalence of diagnosed HIV – United States
– Numerator: Persons aged ≥13 years living with diagnosed HIV
infection year-end 2013
– Denominator: Persons aged ≥13 years living with diagnosed or
undiagnosed HIV infection year-end 2013 (derived using back-
calculation)
 The following indicators only use data from areas with complete
reporting of CD4 and viral load test results to CDC (32 states and the
District of Columbia):
– Linkage to care (within 1 month)
– Retention in care
– Viral suppression

Diagnosed Infection among Persons Aged ≥13 Years Living with Diagnosed or
Undiagnosed HIV Infection, by Sex, 2013—United States
Note. Data include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection regardless of stage of disease at diagnosis. Estimates were derived by using back-
calculation on HIV data for persons aged ≥13 years at diagnosis in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Diagnosed Infection among Persons Aged ≥13 Years Living with Diagnosed or
Undiagnosed HIV Infection, by Age, 2013—United States
Note. Data include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection regardless of stage of disease at diagnosis. Estimates were derived by using back-
calculation on HIV data for persons aged ≥13 years at diagnosis in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
