From African health and influenza pandemics to disease in Russia
London international atlas of Aids
The Geography of Aids
We begin this volume by describing the structure of the HIV its life-cycle process mode of transmission and impact on the human immune system and other parts of the body. From there we proceed to a discussion of the major theories pertaining to the geographic origin of the HIV. Of the regions to be considered Central Africa is the first since it appears to be especially important as a possible index location for the HIV as well as the potential f…

eu des taux de mortalité infantile moins élevés que les Etats-Unis. Alors que ces taux tendent généralement à baisser dans la plupart des pays développés, ceux des Etats- Unis restent élevés. Certains chercheurs ont séparé deux groupes au sein de la population : les Noirs et les Blancs, afin de démontrer le degré de ressemblance entre les taux de mortalité infantile chez les Blancs et les taux européens. La Caroline du Nord présente des taux de m…
The Origin and Diffusion of Aids
The integration of the history and geography of diseases is essential to understanding and revealing a true picture of epidemiology and disease patterns as they are today. This is particularly true for the current pandemic of the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The complexity and capabilities of the disease agent, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type I (HIV-I), generate increasing concern about this fatal disease. Thus far, treatment …
Spatial Perspectives on Influenza Inoculation Acceptance and Policy
This paper examines spatial aspects of the inoculation program of 1976 within the context of the diffusion of other kinds of influenza immediately before and after the program. Events that contributed to federal involvement in a major effort to combat the possible spread of a serious infectious disease through the United States included elevated numbers of influenza deaths due to a prevailing viral strain during the winter of 1976, an outbreak of…

Environmental Risk Factors of California Encephalitis in Man
HE occurrence of encephalitis in humans is caused by several different kinds of arthropod-borne viruses and a variety of other complications resulting from either head injury or such infectious childhood diseases as mumps, measles, or chicken pox. Each year encephalitis affects hundreds of young children and a lesser number of adults in the United States. Generally explained as inflammation of the brain, not all cases of encephalitis are severe a…

elaborate and advanced health care systems in the world. This system is characterized by an intricate hierarchy of physicians, group practices, clinics, ambulatory care centers, and hospitals of many sizes. While the proprietary physician is the actor with the leading role in almost every level of the American hierarchy, data regarding ambulatory care and patterns of referral for additional treatment which would serve as excellent indicators of h…

Measles as an Urban Health Problem
The purpose of this study is to analyze the geographical nature of the Akron measles epidemic of 1970-71 in an attempt to better understand the reasons why it occurred. Areas of Akron affected more seriously than others are examined from the human ecological point of view, i.e., varying incidence rates have been correlated with specific socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of inhabitants of census tracts.

Modeling Patterns of Death and Disease in Chicago
The purpose of this paper is to develop methods of relating notifiable diseases1 and other key measures reported by small subareas within cities to the socioeconomic characteristics of the people residing in those areas. It is believed that such a study will provide a valuable input for future analyses of illnesses in relation to social groups, and lead towards much needed improvement in urban medical geography. Predictions of future need for hea…
