Surveillance
The Surveillance Program monitors the pattern of transmission of HIV, viral hepatitis, and specific sexually transmissible infections in Australia, in collaboration with the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing., State and Territory health authorities and collaborating networks.
Detailed analyses and interpretation of recent trends in new diagnoses of HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis and sexually transmissible infections, and estimates of HIV and hepatitis C prevalence and incidence in population subgroups of lower and higher risk of infection are published in <i>HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis and sexually transmissible infections in Australia Annual Surveillance Report</i>. The figures published in each issue of the Annual Surveillance Report are available as a downloadable file. Public release datasets on new HIV and AIDS diagnoses are also available for download.
The Surveillance Program of the National Centre in HIV Epidemiology and Clinical Research is a collaborating unit of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare
