Once an epicenter for HIV transmission in the United States, New York City reported Monday that more than 90 percent of HIV-positive residents are diagnosed and undergoing treatment.
Nationally, only 85 percent of the more than 1 million Americans with HIV are aware they're sick, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention . As of 2015, 73 percent received treatment and only 60 percent achieved suppression of the virus.
It's the first U.S. city to reach the 90 percent threshold for diagnosis, treatment and suppression outlined in the global"Fast-Track Cities" initiative, according to the mayor's office. Since 2014, more than 300 municipalities have signed the 2020 challenge: 90 percent of people living with HIV will know their status; 90 percent of people with diagnoses will receive proper therapy; and 90 of percent those undergoing therapy will achieve viral suppression.

Since the start of the epidemic, more than 100,000 have died, according to city officials.
