There were 507 reported cases of HIV in Alberta in 2023 — a 73 per cent increase from 286 in 2022 .

The most common exposure category for both men and women was classified as “acquired out of country,” making up 54 per cent of the cases.

Aniela dela Cruz , an associate professor in the faculty of nursing at the University of Calgary , said the influx of new cases is in part due to immigration.
