HIV Epidemiological Profile
Identifying gaps and setting priorities for populations who need prevention and care services.
The Office of HIV, under the Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health, has written this epidemiological report to present comprehensive data on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Nevada. Data in this report include persons who were diagnosed with HIV, living with HIV, at-risk of HIV, or died of HIV in Nevada through 2018-2022. This report was informed by guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The goal of this document is to illustrate the landscape and burden of HIV across Nevada over the five-year span of 2018-2022.
In this profile, you can expect to find data presented by geographic region, demographic group, and transmission group. This report is intended to serve as a resource for state, county, and community-based organizations to evaluate and make recommendations for allocating resources to HIV planning, prevention, and care programs. This epidemiological profile has two main sections. Section I provides a broad overview of Nevada’s landscape, including factors that influence population health and HIV transmission rates across the state. Section II includes HIV data and analysis spanning 2018- 2022. The most current HIV surveillance data may be found on the State of Nevada’s HIV Surveillance Dashboard (updated annually).
