confidential testing done between January1990 - December 2006. Please note a change reflecting recent changes in North Carolina reporting, "HIV
Disease" refers to all people infected with human immunodeficiency virus, with and without an AIDS defining condition. Previously data were reported
separately for HIV and AIDS. Currently AIDS cases are subset of HIV disease. AIDS case reporting began in the United States in 1981 and North
Carolina in 1984. HIV infection reporting begin in North Carolina in January1990 and HIV disease reporting in 2001.

because they can be easily disseminated or transmitted from person to person;result in high mortality rates and have the potential for major public health
impact; might cause public panic and social disruption; and require special action for public health preparedness.
