Data for the period 2008 to 2018 were consulted. Results: In this period, 21701 new cases of HIV/AIDS were identified in patients aged ≥60, representing 4.87% of the total. elderly, it was verified the relationship between the level of education and the rate of infection, the growth in the number of cases in certain regions and the process of heterosexualization of the disease was noted. Conclusion: HIV/AIDS is today a reality of great challenges for managers and health professionals.
