The Burden of Disease Research Unit of South African Medical Research Council has estimated the misclassification of HIV deaths. This figure shows the extent of the misclassification by age group, as well as the causes the HIV is misattributed to. Reported HIV deaths are indicated in brown closest to the x-axis with the numbers of misattributed HIV deaths to other causes shown in other colours. The largest proportion of HIV deaths were misattributed to TB - dark blue.
