National statistics show a decline in the number of new AIDS i uses and in AIDS deaths According to CDC, the first half of 1991 saw 18,HU5 now AIDS cases di agnosed. and in the second half of that year the number dropped to 14,407, a 24 percent reduction This is the first slowing of the dis ease since the CDC began keeping trark of AIDS in 1981 The number of AIDS related deaths are also tbs lining with 13.301 deaths in the first half of 1091, and 10,608 in the second half, a reduction of nearly 21 pert ent That puts the number of deaths and new ( ases bat k to 1987 levels Dr Mark Loveless, director of the AIDS program at Oregon Health Sci ence University, said the numbers mav be misleading because new drugs such as AZI mav have delayed the onset of full-blown AIDS for many [ample who are HIV positive Since statistics on HIV-posilives are rail gathered, there is no way lo confirm whether the spread of HIV has also Ireen slowed, he said Nonetheless. Loveless said he sus pet is HIV inlet lions are also slowing One of the causes ol this is a t hange in lifestyles among ga\ men, which has slowed the spread of the disease However, he said the spread tit AIDS among heterosexual women lias increased According to the ( IK . there was an 8 percent national reduction of new AIDS cases transmitted its male homosexual contact between 1990 and 1991 On the other hand, CDC statistics find that cases Increased i'2 percent among heterosexual women w ho aren't iV drug users But women still count !nr only 11 percent of diagnosed AIDS cases in (he United States, and heterosexual women who don't use IV drugs at • count lor about 1 percent of diag nosed AIDS cases or 1,923 ( uses Stove Modosilt. HIV surveillance manager for Oregon’s Health Diva sion. said Oregon is also seeing a do t line in new AIDS rases In 19(H) Or egon had 1)24 cases, in 1401 that number dropped to 2 72 t uses "I think the epidemit is slowing, especially in Oregon, and with the gay male population overall," he saitl Hut he cautioned that Oregon saw increases among male IV drug users, heterosexual men and women f rom 1981 to 1988 there were H now rases of male IV drug users de veloping AIDS in Oregon. From 1989 to 1991 this number rose to 45, Modesitt saitl Oregon had just one male and four females who got the disease through heterosexual contact between 1981 to 198B. he saitl From 1989 to 1991 there were It! heterosexual men and 14 heterosexual women diagnosed. Janet Winter, HIV educator for Lane County Public Health Services, saitl since 1985 there have been 77 cases of AIDS diagnosed anti 55 AIDS deaths m Lane County Of those diagnosed, more than 75 percent are gay men, he said In Lane County, there are four women who have been diagnosed with AIDS Winter said three of those women saitl they probably contracted the disease through heterosexual con tact, anti the fourth saitl slit- was an IV drug user Jim Shoemaker, coordinator id the While Bird medical clinic, said the statistics ought be worthless because the exact number of people who have HIV are not know Shoemaker saitl that the retent sla tistu s might hamper efforts to control the disease "This is going to give those; people in denial an extra btiosl ot denial !
