Factbox: Obama's new domestic AIDS plan

(Reuters) - President Barack Obama is expected to release on Tuesday a new plan for fighting AIDS in the United States, in part by cutting transmission rates and getting more people treated.

Here are some details of the plan, released by the White House:

* Reduce the annual number of new infections by 25 percent from 56,300 to 42,225 by 2015.

* Reduce the HIV transmission rate by 30 percent, from five people newly infected for every 100 people with HIV to 3.5 new infections for every 100 existing infections.

* By 2015, ensure that 90 percent of those infected know it, up from the current 79 percent.

* Get 85 percent of newly diagnosed HIV patients to a clinic or doctor's office within three months, up from the current 65 percent, by 2015.

* Increase by 20 percent the proportion of men who have sex with men, blacks and Hispanics who are treated with drugs that suppress the virus to undetectable levels.

* The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 1.1 million people in the United States have HIV. The United Nations says 33 million people globally are infected.

* There is no cure and no vaccine but cocktails of drugs called highly active antiretroviral therapy can control the virus. A year's treatment costs about $25,000 in the United States.
