Resumen
BRAVO-GARCIA, Enrique et al. HIV mortality in sanitary districts of Mexico from 1990 to 2015. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2019, vol.61, n.5, pp.563-571. Epub 07-Ago-2020. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/10040.
Objective:
To analyze the distribution and trends of HIV mortality in the Sanitary Districts (JS) of Mexico.
Materials and methods:
To calculate crude and standardized mortality rates, official figures of deaths fromInstituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografíaand population estimates fromConsejo Nacional de Poblaciónwere used. Magnitude, distribution and trends of HIV mortality were analyzed, at the national level, by state and JS, using JoinPoint regression model.
Results:
From 2008 to 2015, HIV mortality decreased by more than 20%. In the 25 JS with highest mortality, live 11% of the national population, but concentrated 28.6% of the total HIV death, with mortality rates two or more fold than national rate.
Conclusions:
We identified the 25 JS where actions to reduce HIV mortality in Mexico should be focused. For first time a health problem was analyzed in all JS of Mexico.
