Data from Fulton County, where Atlanta is located, shows a decline in new HIV diagnoses from 2018 to 2023: 603 in 2018, 552 in 2019, 479 in 2020, 525 in 2021, 518 in 2022, and 466 in 2023.
For 2025, no specific data on new diagnoses in Atlanta is available in the provided sources. However, Georgia as a whole reported approximately 2,500 new HIV cases in 2023, with metro Atlanta accounting for more than half of these. Fulton and DeKalb counties, part of metro Atlanta, had some of the highest rates of new infections nationwide, at about 50 cases per 100,000 people. Extrapolating from 2023 data, Fulton County’s 466 cases in 2023 suggest a monthly average of about 39 cases, but this is a rough estimate and not specific to 2025.
