The pic above was from this article. It goes over HIV clusters, their regions & dangers to the reduction efforts in those areas. This information is focused on HIV transmitted by needle use. The areas in orange accounted for 50% or more of all new viral transmissions in recent years. It's certain other blood born agents would spread as well, like hepatitis.
The scary thing is the majority of those places are in the South. To be specific, Oklahoma & 2 adjoining states are highlighted. Well, at least Oklahoma's at the top of some list.
Take care & be safe.
Cya...
