Slide 9 of 12

Slide #9 - Title:
Percentage Distribution of AIDS Cases in Female Adults and Adolescents, by Risk Exposure and Population of Area of Residence, Diagnosed through 2001, United States

The pattern of risk distribution by population of area of residence for women reported with AIDS is similar for large and smaller metropolitan areas.  In nonmetropolitan areas, the proportion of cases attributed to heterosexual transmission from a man at risk for HIV (other than an injection drug user) is higher than the proportion attributed to other risk exposures. Most of the persons who attributed their infection to heterosexual contact reported that their partners were HIV infected but did not report the partner’s risk category.
