That geographic area is called "the bible belt". and that's explain everything...
Not surprising since the south has high rates of almost everything bad- diabetes, obesity, homicide, teen pregnancy etc. Religion and poverty trump all.

It is obvious that the HIV infection is not infectious but basically one social problem and showing better than in the US History marginalization Southern countries have always had.

The same happens in Mexico.
