You could rename it “population density in the US and it would be just about as accurate – more people, more of any communicable disease.

This is cases per 100,000 people. I wouldn’t have thought population density would affect that by a great deal. Though I guess there could be more STIs if you don’t need to travel as far to get laid …

Also: Come to Florida, we’ve got AIDS

I call bullshit. We’d hear a lot more about AIDS if it was that bad. And WHOLE STATES without data??
I don’t see anything on the chart about who made it or the sources of their data.

Thanks for the link. Aidsvu.org states the data (not the map) is from the CDC. According to the CDC, there are 1.2 million cases in the USA. 1 in 5 of them don’t know they have it. Setting aside how the CDC knows someone has AIDS when the person in question doesn’t. 1.2 million is about a 1/3 of a percent the USA’s overall population of 308 million. So why does the map look like we’re at a much higher percentage?
Another thing about the map that bothers me is Michigan. Did that state mutate? I know it doesn’t look like that, and based on the placement of the colors, the Great Lakes have AIDS case reported? Who’s fucking the fish and giving them AIDS?
Here’s a link to the CDC’s info:
