Patterns and Trends of HIV on the

human population

What is HIV?Also called: human

immunodeficiency

virus, acquired

immunodeficiency

syndrome. HIV

damages the

immune system,

interfering with the

body's ability to

fight infections.Made by:

GAPMINDER IS A NON-PROFIT VENTURE

SETUP UNDER THE UNITED NATIONS

MILLENNIUM GOALS PROJECT.

IT AIMS TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE

GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT OF THE WORLD

BY RAISING AWARENESS THROUGH

STATISTICS & OTHER INFORMATION.

WHAT ARE DYNAMIC AND BUBBLE GRAPHS

Gapminder uses dynamic/bubble graphs for

displaying worldwide data on different topics.

Each bubble on the graph represents a single

column on the x-axis and multiple rows on the y-axis.

When the user hovers on a bubble, it displays

information about a country on the respective topic.

EXPLORING HIV ON GRAPH

I plan to choose Qatar and Zimbabwe as my targets for this

study. I choose Zimbabwe and Qatar because I feel that the

HIV levels of these two countries are completely different.

The graph and statistics suggest the countries are complete

opposite of each other with respect to HIV levels.

I will construct a time-series graph for both the countries

to show their HIV trends and look for patterns in time.

I will compare them in one graph to show the difference of

HIV levels.

The values shown are taken from

the year 1980 and then straight

to 1991. Then from 1991, the

data moves till 2000

DEMONSTRATION OF EXCEL GRAPHS

ANALYSIS

In the graph, Zimbabwe

has shown growth in HIV

levels straight from 1980

straight till 1998. The

graph then declines until

2000.

Growth-From 0.01-26.5%

Decay-From 26.5-25.7%

Qatar has shown consistencycy

in its HIV levels. They have

appreciated (0.01% to 0.06%)

from 1980 until 1991.

From there, the levels neither

risen nor fallen.

WHAT DID I DO?Qatar has constantly kept its HIV levels at a lower level while Zimbabwe has shown major fluctuations. Qatar HIV level haven’t risen from 0.06% since 2010. It has remained stable and constant.

HIV levels in Qatar rose from 0.00% to 0.06% in 11 years. Zimbabwe showed a massive 10% growth in that same time period. It then slightly decreases by 0.8% over a period of two years.

According to the Gapminder HIV dynamic graph, the income of a person in Qatar is much higher than that of a person in Zimbabwe. This suggests that Qatar people have much more disposable income on healthcare than the people of Zimbabwe.

Qatar has taken many steps towardstreating HIV in its country. It’s consistent HIV levels are the result of its awareness campaigns and advanced healthcare. It’s

funding comes from its oil industry(OPEC)

Qatar still needs to improve on its research

and evaluation techniques.This factor is vital becauseif a new disease breaks outthe people will be aware of its symptoms and can find

ways to prevent them.

HIV & ZIMBABWE

Zimbabwe has been prevalent

with HIV ever since the 4th quarter

of the 21st century. Right now, more

than 1,300,000 people aged between

15 & 49 are suffering from HIV. GDP of Zimbabwe-

7.366 billion US$

Zimbabwe is doing everything

it can to tackle HIV. However,

it is facing major drawbacks

with donor funding, because of

its fairly weak economy. This

drawback will further affect

the distribution of drugs in the

country and affect overall

health.
