DEFINITIONS OF THE INDICATORS

HIV prevalence (%) among higher-risk populations in capital city (aged below 25 years), 2007–2012: Percentage of higher-risk populations (persons who inject drugs, sex workers and men who have sex with men aged 0–24) living with HIV. Percentage of higher-risk populations (aged below 25 years) using a condom at last sex, 2007–2012: Percentage of higher-risk populations (persons who inject drugs, sex workers and men who have sex with men aged 0–24) using a condom at last sex. Percentage of persons who inject drugs (aged below 25 years) reporting use of sterile injecting equipment the last time they injected, 2007–2012: Percentage of people who inject drugs (aged 0–24) reporting the use of sterile injecting equipment the last time they injected. Percentage of higher-risk populations (aged below 25 years) who received an HIV test and knew their result, 2007–2012: Percentage of higher-risk populations (persons who inject drugs, sex workers and men who have sex with men aged 0–24) who received an HIV test in the past 12 months and knew the result.

NOTES

– Data not available. * Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified in the column heading. ** Excludes China. ǂ Regional averages are calculated only when the population represents 50 per cent or more of the region’s total population of interest. x Data refer to years or periods other than those specified in the column heading. Such data are not included in the calculation of regional and global averages, with the exception of 2005–2006 India. Estimates from years prior to 2005 are not displayed. y Data differ from the standard definition or refer to only part of a country. If they fall within the reference period, such data are included in the calculation of regional and global averages. p Based on small denominators (typically 25–29 unweighted cases). No data based on fewer than 25 unweighted cases are displayed. a/ Sub-Saharan Africa includes the Sudan and Djibouti. δ Due to the cession in July 2011 of the Republic of South Sudan by the Republic of the Sudan, and its subsequent admission to the United Nations on 14 July 2011, disaggregated data for the Sudan and South Sudan as separate States are not yet available for all indicators. In these cases, aggregated data are presented for the Sudan pre-cession. Some estimates do not add up to the totals because of rounding. Low- and middle-income countries are classified as such by the World Bank as of July 2013; these countries form the basis for the data analysis in UNAIDS, UNICEF and WHO.
