HIV incidence in the United States has not been directly measured. New assays that differentiate recent versus long-standing HIV infections allow improved estimation of HIV incidence. To estimate HIV incidence in the United States. Remnant diagnostic serum specimens from patients diagnosed with HIV during 2006 in 22 states were tested with the BED HIV-1 capture enzyme immunoassay to classify infections as recent or long-standing. Information was reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention through June 2007. HIV incidence in the 22 states during 2006 was estimated using a statistical approach with adjustment for testing frequency and extrapolated to the U.S. Results were corroborated with back-calculation of HIV incidence for 1977–2006 based on HIV diagnoses from 40 states and on AIDS incidence from 50 states and the District of Columbia. Data from 22 states were extrapolated to the U.S. Persons newly diagnosed with HIV (age ≥ 13 years). Estimated HIV incidence. An estimated 39,400 persons were diagnosed with HIV in 2006 in the 22 states. Of 6,864 diagnostic specimens tested using the BED assay, 2,133 (31%) were classified as recent infections. Based on extrapolations from these data, the estimated number of new infections for the U.S. in 2006 was 56,300 (95% confidence interval [CI] 48,200, 64,500); the estimated incidence rate was 22.8 per 100,000 population (95% CI 19.5, 26.1). Forty-five percent of infections were among blacks and 53% among men who have sex with men. The back-calculation (n=1.230 million HIV/AIDS cases reported by the end of 2006) yielded an estimate of 55,400 (95% CI 52,700, 58,100) new infections per year for 2003–2006, and indicated that HIV incidence increased in the mid-1990s, then slightly declined after 1999 and has been stable thereafter. The estimates are the first direct estimate of HIV incidence in the United States using laboratory technologies that were previously only implemented in clinic-based settings. New HIV infections in the United States remain concentrated among men who have sex with men and African Americans.
