description WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? An estimated 1,400 new cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) occur every day among youths globally. However, HIV distribution among youth aged 15–24 years in China has not been researched extensively. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? Between 2010 and 2019, a total of 141,557 HIV cases among the group aged 15–24 years were reported in China with a male to female ratio at 4.07∶1. The main route of HIV transmission was unprotected sex among men who have sex with men (MSM), and heterosexual transmission for females. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? Effective HIV control and prevention measures need to target youth aged 15–24 years, especially among MSM. Sexual health education and HIV prevention should start from primary and secondary school levels.
