AIDS forecast errors overestimate and underestimate cases
Estimates misjudge AIDS case ranges from 85 000 to 750 000 and rely on counting potential cases rather than people testing positive for HIV.

CDC cites undercounting issues and calls for better risk group data. As of May 31 1989, 97 193 Americans diagnosed with AIDS and over 6 400 deaths since 1981.
