In an unprecidented move, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has recalculated their estimates of the number of new HIV infections. The new estimates show that there are 40 percent more new infections than once believed. The estimate of 40,000 new cases each year has been increased to 56,000 new cases. The CDC states that the change in estimates is due to new methods of surveillance and testing that can pinpoint the time of infection within a few months. Read more about these new estimates in this article from CNN Health.
