Introduction:
AIDS remains a major public health concern in Brazil.
Methods:
This study investigated spatiotemporal patterns of reported AIDS cases among adults in São Paulo between 2000 and 2016, and their associations with human development index.
Results:
In the early 20th century, the more developed administrative districts (ADs) indicated higher AIDS incidences among men. From the 2010s, ADs with lower development indicate higher rates of the disease among women.
Conclusions:
The results are useful to support the planning of actions aimed at controlling the incidence and transmission of AIDS in certain areas, based on diversification by gender and risk populations.
