The age structure of the morbidity rate of HIV infections` and HIV-infection associating with tuberculosis among population of the Perm Region from 2005 to 2014 was studied. In recent years the incidence rate of these infections was noticed to be redistributed towards the older age groups. The average age of cases has increased from 27.0 and 25.4 years in 2005 to 34.1 and 32.5 years in 2014. The hypotheses explaining changes in the age structure of epidemic processes of the studied infections were formulated.
