This year, AIDSVu celebrates 15 years of making HIV data widely available, easily accessible, and locally relevant to inform public health decision making and action. Through maps, location profiles, service locators, and engagement with experts, our stakeholders can understand the impact of HIV on the United States better than ever before.
Since its inception in 2010, AIDSVu has connected over 2.7 million people to critical HIV-related data and resources and has informed more than 1,100 published works. Over the years, AIDSVu’s data has become more and more granular, helping users understand HIV down to the ZIP code-level, allowing people to visualize HIV across the country, in their state, and in their city, and by other factors like PrEP use, social determinants of health, stigma, and across the HIV care continuum.
“Data is power. Whether you are a mathematical person or a visual person, you can come and look, and we can have a common understanding of what the HIV epidemic looks like in our city, in our state or in the country,” said AIDSVu Principal Scientist Dr. Patrick Sullivan. “Our role is to make sure that there’s a transparent view and to just keep shining that light.”
Today we released “The Vu From Here” a new video about Gilead Sciences and Emory University’s partnership on AIDSVu, and the platform’s role in providing widely accessible, relevant, and localized data on the HIV epidemic.
Thank you to our many partners, including members of our advisory committees, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state and city public health departments for your continued support over the last 15 years as AIDSVu has published more granular insights and data on the HIV epidemic. Additionally, we’d like to thank the advocates and users who have invested their time and trust into AIDSVu as a public health platform. Your commitment to ending the HIV epidemic is critical to our continued progress.
