European Union: Incidence of HIV, all (per 1,000 uninfected population)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2023, European Union's incidence of HIV, all (per 1,000 uninfected population) fell 0.0000516 on 2022 (from 0.1 to 0.1).

Across the 12 yearly changes before that (2011 to 2022), the average change was −0.0000863 and a typical year strayed about 0.00036 from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 0.000972 in 2012 and the biggest yearly fall was 0.000408 in 2015. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2014 to 2023 the straight-line trend is downward, about 0.000142 a year. A straight line explains 86% of the movement over 10 observed years.
