  36. S.C. HIV/AIDScases estimated not in care diagnosed through 2008 HIV-only vs. AIDS (N=6,638) HIV-only 60% AIDS 40%

  37. S.C. HIV/AIDScases diagnosed through 2008, comparison within select demographicsestimated percentage not in care 72 69 % 38 30 28 26 22 9 4 <1 1 Male 50+ Female White Black 30-39 40-49 20-29 Hispanic <20 Gender Age Race Other/Unknown
