(Santa Ana, CA)  - June 27 marks National HIV Testing Day (NHTD), which promotes testing and early diagnosis of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). This year's NHTD theme is Level up your self-love: check your status . Now is the time to take an HIV test. Knowing your status is the first step to engaging in prevention or treatment services that enable individuals, regardless of their status, to live a long and healthy life.

There were 7,044 people living with HIV in Orange County at the end of 2023. Of those, 77% were receiving care. Untreated, HIV infection can lead to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), which in turn can cause serious illness and death. Advances in HIV treatment have resulted in people living with HIV having longer and healthier lives. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that an additional 1,494 Orange County residents have HIV and don't know it – some of whom will develop AIDS before knowing they have HIV. Additional HIV/AIDS data in Orange County includes:

  • During 2023, there were 266 Orange County residents newly diagnosed with HIV.
  • Of the newly diagnosed, 80% were linked to care in 30 days or less.
  • Of the newly diagnosed, 21% learned that they had AIDS at the same time, indicating that they were living with HIV for years before getting ill. They had been to a health care setting such as an emergency room, a community health center, or their doctor, but were not tested for HIV.

The CDC recommends that people between 13 and 64 years of age get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine health care. For those at high risk for HIV, including men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender individuals, and persons who inject drugs, the CDC recommends testing at least once per year as part of routine health care.

If you have never been tested for HIV, ask your health care provider for an HIV test. For those who test negative and are at high risk for HIV, Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), a medication to prevent HIV, is available. Please contact the following agencies for information on free, confidential HIV testing, as well as for information on free or low-cost PrEP services available in Orange County:
