  • 1. Universidad Católica Sedes Sapientiae

Description

The database compiles aggregated time series data from the National Center for Epidemiology, Disease Prevention, and Control (CDC) of Peru. This comprehensive national data, collected annually, originates from the National Epidemiological Surveillance Network and the system's reporting channels. Time series have been constructed in parallel, covering the period from 1983 to 2023.

The database includes the number of nationally reported HIV cases, organized annually. These cases are of individuals who have had two reactive screening tests (a rapid HIV test and/or an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA] for HIV) or a positive confirmatory test. Cases of HIV at the AIDS stage are also included, categorized by the year of diagnosis according to the national standard case definition, which includes clinical and laboratory criteria such as a low CD4 count (stage 3) and the presence of an opportunistic disease (stage C).
