Changes in STD Incidence, 2018-2020*

*The following three GIFs were originally created with 2021 and 2022 data as well, allowing viewers to visualize changes in STD incidence rates per Texas county over the span of 5 years (2018-2022). Data from 2021 and 2022 are still pending review and final approval before they can be made publicly available.

Rates per county (cases per 100,000 pop) were calculated using a program I created, documented here. Tab delimited output data was then inserted into a separate choropleth map creation program as datalines. Annotated map was created using PROC GMAP. Final GIF format created using Adobe Photoshop.
