  • End HIV Oregon Data Dashboard
  • The purpose of the End HIV Oregon Dashboard is to use notifiable disease, survey and prescription drug data to track metrics under the four pillars of the initiative with the goal of eliminating new HIV transmissions and improving the health of people living with HIV. Testing is easy. Prevention works. Treatment saves lives. Ending disparities includes tracking metrics, changing policy and working with community partners.
  • HIV in Oregon - Epidemiologic Profile Dashboard
  • The HIV Epidemiologic Profile summarizes key aspects of the HIV epidemic in Oregon.
    • People living with HIV by county and demographic
    • HIV diagnoses, trends by county and by demographic
    • Sexually transmitted diseases reported before HIV diagnosis
    • Early engagement in care: 
      • Linkage to care in 30 days 
      • Viral load suppression within 90 days 
    • Late diagnoses (AIDS diagnoses within 90 days)
    • The HIV Care Continuum
    • Mortality: 
      • Causes of death
      • Differences in 10-year survival
  • HIV Prevention Testing Data Dashboard 
    The HIV prevention testing dashboard looks at publicly funded HIV testing data in Oregon. The dashboard breaks down HIV testing data by county or agency and by testing year. It presents demographic and risk data as well as other relevant metrics.
  • End HIV Oregon 2022 Progress Report - English and Spanish
    End HIV Oregon is Oregon’s initiative to end new HIV infections in our state. It is a collaborative effort between the Oregon Health Authority, the End HIV/STI Oregon Statewide Planning Group (including people living with HIV and at risk of HIV infection), and a variety of public and private agencies and community groups across Oregon. 
  • Medical Monitoring Project (MMP)
    Oregon has been participating in this Centers for Disease Control surveillance study since 2007 that focuses on the experiences and needs of people who are receiving care for HIV.

Annual HIV diagnoses in Oregon from 2012 (271) to 2022 (244) and diagnoses per 100,000 residents from 2012 (6.9) to 2022 (5.7).

Takeaway: New HIV diagnoses have generally decreased between 2012-2020, but have increased steadily since 2020. 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.




Takeaway: In 2022, there were 8,220 people diagnosed with HIV and living in Oregon. We estimate there are about 1,110 people who have acquired HIV but are undiagnosed. Among people diagnosed with HIV, 77% were virally suppressed, meaning they can not transmit HIV to their sexual partners. For more information, see the interactive dashboards
