INTRODUCTION
HIV infection remains an important public health problem in the state of Georgia. As of the end of 2020, there were 60,073 persons living with HIV in Georgia, and 2,018 persons were diagnosed in 2020. The number of persons living with HIV continues to increase, because of effective therapies now available. Based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's 2019 HIV Surveillance Report, Georgia was ranked the fourth highest in the nation for both the total number of new diagnoses of HIV infection among adults and adolescents after Florida, California, and Texas, and ranked the fifth highest for the number of persons living with HIV infection, after Florida, California, Texas, and New York1. Georgia ranked 2nd in the rate of HIV diagnosis among adults and adolescents, and 4th in the rate of persons living with HIV.
Monitoring the HIV/AIDS epidemic and understanding the burden of HIV infection in Georgia are essential for meeting the goals stated in the 2022-2025 National HIV/AIDS Strategy to: 1) prevent new HIV infections; 2) improve HIV-related health outcomes for persons living with HIV; 3) reduce HIV-related health disparities and inequities, and 4) achieve a more coordinated national response to the HIV epidemic among all partners and stakeholders.2

Information on the Georgia HIV care continuum can be found in a separate report at the following web page: https://dph.georgia.gov/hiv-care-continuum.
Interpreting HIV Surveillance Data During the COVID-19 Pandemic
After the COVID-19 pandemic was declared a national and state emergency in March 2020, access to healthcare services, including HIV testing, prevention, and care-related services, became reduced or temporarily suspended. Therefore, decreases seen in 2020 HIV diagnoses may partly represent decreased availability of HIV testing or delays in seeking HIV testing. As a result, 2020 HIV surveillance data should be interpreted with caution.

TECHNICAL NOTES

Georgia statutes and regulations (O.C.G.A. 3112-2(b)) require healthcare providers (such as nurses, nurse practitioners, doctors, physician assistants) licensed in the state of Georgia to report all cases of HIV infection and/or Stage 3 (AIDS) to the Georgia DPH within seven days of diagnosis3. Laboratories licensed in the state of Georgia are required to report all HIV-related laboratory test results within 7 days. The information is used to monitor the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Georgia and guide program planning and evaluation. The data presented in the accompanying tables are based on confidential case reports collected through the Georgia DPH enhanced HIV/AIDS Reporting System (eHARS).
AIDS reporting began in the early 1980s, and HIV reporting began in Georgia on December 31, 2003. Electronic transmission of laboratory test results began in 2011. Receipt of CD4 counts and viral load tests make it possible to estimate the HIV Care Continuum for persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection in the state of Georgia (reports are available at: https://dph.georgia.gov/hiv-carecontinuum).
This report includes surveillance data reported through December 31, 2021 for cases diagnosed through December 31, 2020. This report is limited to cases diagnosed through December 2020 to take into account delays in reporting, and to allow for obtaining follow up information on reported cases.
2020 Georgia HIV Surveillance Summary

HIV diagnoses include persons with a diagnosis of HIV infection, regardless of the stage of disease at diagnosis, who were residents of Georgia at the time of diagnosis. Persons living with HIV are those with a residence in the state of Georgia, based on current information available in the Georgia HIV/AIDS surveillance system, regardless of where they resided at the time of diagnosis. Persons residing in correctional facilities are included in this report and may inflate rates in certain geographic regions where there are large numbers of HIV-positive inmates.
Information on transmission category is missing for one quarter of cases. Multiple imputation, a statistical approach, is used to replace each missing transmission category with a set of plausible values that represent the uncertainty about the true, but missing, value4. The methods were applied to adult and adolescent, but not pediatric cases. Multiple imputation is considered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to be the best method for redistribution of missing data in large databases. Transmission category is shown with missing data, and after multiple imputation. Cases missing race/ethnicity are not assigned a risk through multiple imputation.
Persons for whom the current identity box "transgender" was checked on the case report form are classified as transgender. Because providers often do not complete all case report form fields, the numbers
Page 6

reported here are most likely an underestimate. Additionally, because the current identity fields were added to the case report form in 2007, prevalent counts of HIV among transgender persons may be incomplete.
Persons with transmission category "perinatal/other pediatric" include infants born in Georgia who acquired HIV through perinatal transmission, as well as infants born outside of Georgia who acquired HIV through perinatal transmission and were first diagnosed with HIV in Georgia. For more information on perinatal HIV exposure surveillance in Georgia, see the Perinatal HIV Exposure Surveillance Report at https://dph.georgia.gov/epidemiology/georgias-hivaidsepidemiology-section/georgia-hiv-surveillance-data.
For data presented at the Public Health District or MSA level, all cells with values between 1 and 4 observations are censored in accordance with the Georgia Department of Public Health HIV Surveillance Security and Confidentiality Guidelines.
Definitions
HIV DIAGNOSES are cases diagnosed between January 1 and December 31, 2020, with an address at the time of HIV diagnosis was in Georgia, and who were reported to the Georgia Department of Public Health by December 31, 2020, regardless of stage at diagnosis. This group includes persons whose initial diagnosis is Stage 3 (AIDS).
LATE DIAGNOSES are the subset of HIV diagnoses who
2020 Georgia HIV Surveillance Summary

are found to be Stage 3 (AIDS) within 12 months of HIV diagnosis date. Such persons are termed late diagnoses because their advanced stage at diagnosis indicates that they were most likely infected for many years before diagnosis.
STAGE 3 (AIDS) DIAGNOSES include two groups: 1) persons newly diagnosed with HIV in 2020, found to meet the definition for Stage 3 (AIDS) at diagnosis, and with an address at or near the time of Stage 3 diagnosis in Georgia; and, 2) persons found to meet the Stage 3 definition in 2020 with an address at or near the time of Stage 3 diagnosis in Georgia, regardless of the date of their initial HIV diagnosis.
PERSONS LIVING WITH HIV INFECTION are persons diagnosed by December 31, 2020, who are not known to be deceased, and for whom the most recent address available is in Georgia.
PERSONS LIVING WITH HIV, EVER STAGE 3 are persons diagnosed by December 31, 2020, who are not known to be deceased, for whom the most recent address available is in Georgia, and who met the case definition for Stage 3 (AIDS) at some point.
TRANSMISSION CATEGORIES presented in this report follow the standards created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and have been used for many years. According to the CDC, transmission category is the term for the classification of cases that summarizes a person's possible HIV risk factors. The summary classification results from selecting the one most likely risk factor to have been responsible for HIV
Page 7

transmission from the presumed hierarchical order of probability. For surveillance purposes, HIV and AIDS cases are counted only once in the hierarchy of transmission categories. Persons with more than one reported risk factor for HIV infection are classified in the transmission category according to the behavior that is most likely to have resulted in transmission. The exception is men who report sexual contact with other men and injection drug use; this group makes up a separate transmission category. Persons whose transmission category is classified as heterosexual contact are persons who report heterosexual contact specifically with a person known to have or be at high risk for HIV infection (e.g., an injection drug user/IDU). The term high risk is not included in the transmission category label for heterosexual contact in the tables because heterosexual contact itself is the risk factor most likely to have been responsible for transmission. However, the Table 3 footnote regarding this category clarifies how the data are defined: "heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection".
CURRENT RESIDENCE Current address is determined using the date of the most recently-entered residential address as of 12/31/2020 into the Georgia eHARS. The number of persons living with HIV is based on current address.
VITAL STATUS: Persons are assumed to be alive unless otherwise documented or reported. The Georgia DPH performs an annual match of the eHARS database with the Georgia Vital Records death data, the National Death Index and the Social Security Death Index to ascertain vital status.
2020 Georgia HIV Surveillance Summary

RATES: Denominators for population rates are based on the 2020 estimates of the Georgia resident population retrieved from the Georgia Department of Public Health, Office of Health Indicators for Planning (OHIP). Rates are per 100,000 population. Rates are not presented for case numbers less than 12 because these rates have relative standard errors greater than 30% and are considered unreliable.
PERCENTAGES: Total percentages may not add up to 100% due to rounding.
COUNTS: Counts in the gender, race/ethnicity, and age categories may not add up to the overall totals due to a small number of cases with missing information (<2 percent).
