"Since 2000, there has been an increase in the number of people living with HIV, but a decrease in the number of people newly infected with HIV."

Reason: the graph shows the total number living with HIV rising steadily through and after 2000, while new infections peak around 1996 and decline thereafter (including after 2000).
