Oregon New HIV Diagnoses and Diagnoses per 1000,000 Residents

*Interpret 2020 and 2021 data with caution due to the impact of COVID-19 on HIV services. 

Takeaway: New HIV diagnoses have generally decreased between 2012-2021. Estimates from 2020 and 2021 are likely undercounts due to limited HIV services during the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in HIV diagnoses in 2018 was due to an increase among people who use drugs in Multnomah County, OR.

Oregon HIV Care Continuum, 2021

HIV viral load suppression at the last collection date in 2021 (%)

Takeaway: In 2021, there were 8,044 people living with HIV in Oregon. We estimate there are about 1,087 people who have aquired HIV but are undiagnosed. Among people diagnosed with HIV, 76% are virally suppressed, meaning they can not transmit HIV to their sexual partners. For more information, see the interactive dashboards.
