HBV, hepatitis B virus (acute or chronic); HCV, hepatitis C virus (acute or chronic); HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; N/A, not applicable; IDU, injection drug use.
For persons with coinfection, information comes first from the HIV surveillance system. If information was missing in the HIV surveillance system, information from the hepatitis surveillance system was used.
Includes persons for whom the surveillance system did not differentiate between Asian and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander.
Hispanics/Latinos can be of any race.
For HIV cases without a hepatitis event, based on age at diagnosis of HIV. For coinfection cases, based on age at coinfection or second reported virus infection to the health department.
From HIV surveillance system, sex indicates sex at birth. From hepatitis surveillance system, sex might indicate sex at birth, sex at the time of hepatitis event, or current sex at the time the data were extracted.
Data have not been statistically adjusted to account for unknown transmission categories.
Heterosexual contact with a person known to have, or to be at high risk for, HIV infection.
Includes haemophilia, blood transfusion, or perinatal exposure, and persons with an unknown transmission category.
