Trump promises to end HIV epidemic: Map of people with HIV in the US
The infectious disease HIV/AIDS has been in the US since 1981.
An estimated 1.1 million people are living with HIV in the US, however, and thousands still die from AIDS every year.
During his State of the Union address on Tuesday, President Donald Trump called for ending the HIV epidemic in the US by 2030.
The Trump administration says its plan is to focus resources to stop the transmission of HIV on key areas of the country where HIV is prevalent.
Here are some maps that show where HIV is most prevalent in the US made by AIDSVu, a project run by Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health in partnership with Gilead Sciences.
