The paper presents analysis of the structure of HIV-infected persons at different stages of the development of the HIV epidemic process in the Tyumen region (no autonomous areas) from the moment of the first case registration until 2018. We used descriptive-evaluative, analytical, statistical and epidemiological research methods taking into account intensive and extensive indicators, the structure of HIV-infected persons, the identification of trend in the epidemic process. Analysis of the long-term and intra-annual dynamics of the morbidity and prevalence of HIV infection in the Tyumen region clearly showed that the epidemiological situation in the region is alarmingly tense, but the concentration of health authorities and the sanitary-epidemiological service have already yielded positive results in this direction.
