BinghiNya: hiv prevalent in christian states oh jesus

This is uncalled for. Don't gloat over this. We don't want to turn this into a Christian/Muslim contest
There are a lot of factors that are responsible for the high prevalence in some places
More poeple will be tested in Lagos than in some places where awareness is lower or where pregnant women don't compulsively go to the hospital. HIV testing is compulsory for pregnant women

pekelepekele: IBO PEOPLE WITH SO SO HIV MTCHEEEWWWW! . I thought Edo , Lagos and Calabar will top the table and WOW am surprised that OYO the largest city in the whole of Africa is very close to the bottom on the table. Applause for that and this table shows that Ibo people are just common dogs

and if asked now we will discover you have graduated from a yoruber state university with a first class, what a shame, you can't even differentiate a graphical representation from one that shows the percentage of the population of each state. For someone like me, you have only disgraced and embarassed yourself to the lowest depth attainable.

Callotti: You nor 'ear say world wanno h-end? If diarris any RAPTURING. . . I wanno see h-it!
My h-eyes are not 'closing' till January 1st 2013!

Callotti!!!

Cross river state is sopposed to be the number 1.

Hmmm. And these estimates are just from d very few who they have records of. My People, be wise.

Burger01:
FYI, some northerners are tested in the southern and western states and you know what? 90% of those tested became reactive (+ve) and as such are counted in such state. Now, just imagine the number of northerners in the south...

Incorrect. Don't bring tribalism into this matter
There is NO WAY that 90% of the Northerners tested in the South will be +ve and the South will have less than 50%
There must be some interaction between northerners and Southerners when they live in the same area

But the fact is this
Women appear to be more promiscouos in the South while
Men appear to be more promiscuous in the North

How. When you take statistics of discordant couple (married people with ONLY ONE partner being +ve)
there are more women in the South who are +ve with -ve husband
The opposite applies in the North.

Abeg I deY pack go Kebbi make I go start my bleeping campaign for there

teeo:

Tuface koo blackface nii.

Benue, that husband would use wife to entertain guests. No bad feelings but when a lady tells me she is from Benue, i think twice.

u r a big fool! Why not go to benue and witness it urself instead of believing in what ppl say? Idiat!

Ileke-IdI:


After the pastor has bleeped all his female congregation finish, Na the same holy holy women go raise their legs to shout hallelujah the same Sunday.

There is no way that pastors can bring all of that about even if your assumption is true
Those may get tested more because facilities and awareness are higher
They also have more high risk categories - fa..ots and members of the armed forces

DaVinChiSam: Abeg I deY pack go Kebbi make I go start my bleeping campaign for there

if we catch you!!!

abdulkayus:

If u go there, u will c many grave yard of ppl dat die of AIDS, dat is y Corpers are always warn wen dey are posted to serve in Benue. Benue gals sabi open legs EASILY and are good in bed.

This Los Angeles Laboratory designed vector has done its deed of instilling fear into the world and draining cash from Africa to the USA. Its time to turn it off.

I am not supised by the state with the highest percentage. The cultural practise of some of them contributed to it as well more so the nick name that is ascribed to it SIN CITY. Make una learn to use condom

Yea it's time. Padlock your deeeek and swallow the key.

God go solder your mouth and yash!

Lmao

dabossman: Hhm, my darling Benue is back at number one. Benue chicks..., hhm, it is well. [b]Edo's rating has improved in the last 5ys[b]. They used to be in the top three. Kudos to NACA in that state.

Edo was high then because UBTH was a regional test centre. People from Delta, Edo, Ondo aŋԂ even parts of Kogi do their testing there. Gombe and Adamawa should be rated high. I once lived in those area. Tangali girls are leg open ready to receive anything

almost got pin prick yesterday transfusing a HIV patient

ola_pluto: I find this stat amazing. Does this say anything about promiscuity in some states?

Its not all about promiscuity per say, its also shows the level of information available about HIV and methods of prevention

Godjone: u r a big fool! Why not go to benue and witness it urself instead of believing in what ppl say? Idiat!

so i wld get HIV there ba, no i think i wld take a pass. Lasgidi babes never do me finish, na village things u want make i go manage. Ode

kagari: Nawa oo, I think say delta esp kwale go b d first

lolz, u r right, Delta especially Patani area where promiscuity is their daily bread.

I remembered when I did my NYSC years ago in Apir, a suburb of Makurdi Benue state. As a corper I didnt like the school I was posted and wanted to redeploy but the wife of the principal made me change my mind. This was our conversation:
Wife: corper why you wan leave us nau?
Corper: I'm sorry ma I can't serve in this village.
Wife: anything wey you want we go give you.
Corper: but I can't spend a whole year in this (Apir) place!
Wife: we get fine fine girls for here corper. If your body hot, the girls go bring am come down and... I know say you go enjoy this place.
Corper: (trying to interprete her coded language, "if your body hot, the girls go bring am come down and..." ok ma I go stay!

I ended up serving there and indeed it was fun. If given a second chance I'll go back to Apir in Makurdi for my NYSC.

The data displayed means very little statistically speaking.
When displaying statistical data, the sample population needs to be stated. This is not the case here.

Are we talking percentage of the entire population of each state living with HIV or is it % of infant born with HIV in each state.
The data could also well mean % HIV status of pregnant women in each state, or HIV status of all patients admitted to govt hospitals in each state.

Firstly, I am not tribalistic.
Secondly, I meant 90% of northerners (from the cohort of southerners) tested became reactive. The figure is just a subset of the whole of southerners..

When last did u go for HIV testing? I think u need it even now than ever.

Ikengawo: I want to know what is making it so high in Benue state?
Tuface?

Strange!!! I lived and worked in Benue for about nine years and I did not, for once, come across any HIV victim...wonder where this statistics is derived from.

ola_pluto: I find this stat amazing. Does this say anything about promiscuity in some states?

No it doesn't. Unless you are assuming that all infections are due to sex alone?

Are you telling us that Nigeria has the best practice and controls for - blood transfusions, injections, transfusion procedures, barbers & hair dressers etc? Stop this silly propaganda unless you can prove what percentage of infections come from sexual activities!

I'm not even going to go into the validity of the data, especially in a country like Nigeria where everything is political.

I don't know what state of mind and which side of your mouth you used to make that conspiracy assertion on Benue. When people sit and conjour theories and your likes thrive on it so much as to quote it in a reputable public site like nairaland, I weep for the mentality trait of your likes. Wake up and face reality rather than living on cock and bull stories that are concocted out of envy and jealousy.

Hhm, oga! Since when did HIV status become something that people tattoo on their foreheads? Or do you meet people and they say "hi, my name is Dorshima and I'm HIV positive?"

Abeg, no allow me make I vex dis early morrin o!
