priceaction:
Nonsense. there is no data to support this. many dont know their status and many dont patronize hospitals especially government own for treatments. We re not in techy country where everything is documented.

Bring your data! As if they did not put the bolded in mind when doing such analysis. No be only Techy!

and the money no dey pass #500 o na sop dem dey f**k am all over the world. Ibo girls and prostitution, if you know, you know.

:Dagberos,abokis bike riders, shoe shinners,scrap sellers e.t.c will protest if the price pass 500

BluntBoy:


This is where many of you get it wrong. You people think researches cover everyone in a population, but statistics has made up techniques to address differences in population by creating a sample size to represent the population of interest.

If sample size is 100 for Akwa Ibom, it would be 100 for Lagos as well. So, the percentages tell the whole story as far as the number of people sampled is concerned.

The prevalence rate of HIV in a sample size of a 100 people in Akwa Ibom is higher than in Lagos with the same sample size. So, there is a higher prevalence rate of HIV in Akwa Ibom than in Lagos.

But it is not mentioned anywhere in the post that that was what was done, which is my point - you can't just quote percentages without providing the context.

TroubleMaker47:

Actually % matters!
5% and 1% irrespective of their individual population would never bear the same risk!
The chances of getting infected in a region with 5% prevelance would always be 5X the chance of getting infected in a reguon of just 1%!!!

I never said percentages do not matter, I said percentages do not tell the whole story.

1% of 200,000,000 is 2million .....ponder on this.Some countries population are less than a million

having been to most of these states, I believe this list as a matter of experience.

phatlytall:
So, 2.6 million people has HIV in Lagos.

That is not correct. Lagos prevalence rate is 1.3% while Lagos population is approx 20 million. 1.3% of 20m is 260k not 2.6million.

Calculate the percentage base on population.


Imagine Lagos with 1.3% if you calculate it you will know that it is even higher than some states on the list.

So there is actually HIV/ AIDS in Nigeria too? I thought that was for only South Africans���

Please on the grouping by geopolitical zones, you will see that South-East is not the first, but its average exceeds the national average. It does not mean it is the most prevalent.

Please make that correction.

No way! I'm back to Katsina! 0.3%? Almost 0.0! I have to make sure this time I Bleep all buharis cousin's and family members RAW!

Hahaha nyamyri flat.head, I see ur desperately trying to console urself.. you have 3 stares in top 7 and ur proud of it!!

I thought ur region was only ravaged by erosion!

Arysexy:
And haters were pointing fingers at South East.

Hate speech= death by hanging.

Facts don't lie

Is it a percentage of the country's population or Percentage of something else. If it is one have to be super careful.

Hahaha I see ur shocked in seeing how ur relatives might have HIV!! take heart bro

Ibo women are all over the brothels in this country, they can Bleep anything fuckable

Ibo amak!! Nyamuri amaka!

MelesZenawi:
I laugh in swahili

Only few Islam's goes to hospital the rest nothing


Naca survey is a trash

Rubbish! Lagos is 22% and Imo is highest in south east, how about the Kano and Sokoto prostitutes in hijab? Who ever believes this might as well have believed that buhari was the Messiah to rescue Nigeria in 2015. All northern states have least prevalences to play a religious card to ensure abokis continues to breed without condoms. All the abokis I have met in Lagos even my security bleeps ashawo without condom.

Exactly, and from the data give, we can draw this conclusion :the more Muslims are in a state, the less prevalent is HIV/AIDS. This makes Islam really a way of life.

Patrioticman007:
Christians States are dominating the charts. Keep it up

All the abokis I have met in Lagos even my security bleeps ashawo without condom. At the end of the day no reliable statistics can ever emerge from this useless country. 1 out of 100 girls on the street of Lagos is HIV positive according to a recent research.

BeLookingIDIOT:

Only the NW claims so and they have the lowest. Benue,and taraba are not pure Northern

I'm surprised you are denying the northern origin of Benue and Taraba because of some statistics on HIV.

But when it comes to political matters, you will boast of the North having 19 states, those two inclusive.

That's terrible.

SultanOfAbia:
The Sad Truth is That There are Cures For
Cancer
HIV/Aids
But Big Pharma will not make any money from the masses if there is no longer disease.
Think about the trillions made from pharmaceutical companies over decades and you think They want the world to be FREE FROM DISEASE Market go spoil for them..
They will go so far as to create disease in labs and produce drugs that will cure that disease then they target a 3rd world country and infest them with the disease and in turn make billions from selling drugs that will SUBDUE the disease but will not cure you completely.
So the patient will depend on the drugs and the vicious cycle begins.
The Super Elites are hiding the cures of these deadly illnesses. If they release the cure then 6 billion ppl on earth will no longer spend a dime on pharmaceutical drugs thereby making these Super Elites Wealth and Control to Decline..

Pure Fact

realokopi:
If kaduna is not number 1 then I don't agree with the data.

why do you say this?

Exactly, wearing hijab, preachments abt the gravity of zinah, stigmatization of those suspected of committing Zina, etc help Muslims and the north in this case. Islam is good, realistic way of life!

Bari22:

Igbo Amaka
Igbo Amaka

Christians Amaka

Thank God I'm Muslim, Thank God I'm a northerner.

To the people that are always waiting for something bad to happen in the north so that they will come to nairaland and spit out their hate speech, I say deal with it

If the North with all there illiteracy and unprotected sex are not topping this chart then its totally biased

Hahaha nyamuri flat.head, of course since this projection and research doesn't suit ur narrative,ur desperately trying to throw innuendos to find solace and console yourself

You think they are as stupid and delusional as you that they will just go hospitals and ask for HIV patients records!?!?! these are research institutes that carry there own research

I thought ur region was only erosion ravaged area, now HIV too

destinie2019:

There is no reason on earth to believe this. Statistics are not kept. The north is full of the largest population of poor people. They rarely go to hospital to get the medical care they need. Plus, it's a culture of silence. Your health is personal to you. If you know your status, forget stigma and get treated. The north have a great reputation for being chaste and hating immorality and alcohol. The reality, on za oza hand....

Tahhhh....
Lie Northern States has the highest HIV case.

Akwa Ibom ayaya lol

Hahaha nyamuri flat.head! I know it hurts seeing ur region topping the list of HIV patients! what do u expect when all the brothels are saturated by ur women, they can Bleep anything fuckable for money

because a typical hausa/fulani man doesn't use condom that means he should automatically contact it even if they other sex is negative!?!?! .. is it how u fools think?

I see ur desperation in trying to twist makes because it doesn't suit ur narrative

How about u make ur own research and publish it

Khalidase83:
This data ain't true to a large extent. I stay in the North and can tell for free HIV is more prevalent in the North. A typical Hausa/Fulani man don't believe in condom and alot don't go to places where they can be tested and adequately documented.

Basically because eastern people always goes for status checkup....how can u get the true data of some people up there who chose to die in silent but leta dies in shame..

phatlytall:
So, 2.6 million people has HIV in Lagos.

Your maths teacher did a really terrible job...

1.3% of 20.000.000{being the figure peddled around as Lagos' population} can never give you 2.6 million.

No way. Your result/answer should be in the region of 00,000s not 000,000s. Nothing more than that.

The statistics is based on data collected from various partner hospitals. In the North they don't go to hospital and hence the assumption that they have lowest prevalence rate is wrong, like wise in the Southwest where they mostly medicate on herbs will equally make it near impossible to determine the correct figures.

Biafra Republic and aid prevalence......
