The first cases of hiv/aids in the world were found in central africa, and the first major diffusion of hiv/aids occurred in eastern africa along a well- traveled highway from kenya to uganda. a number of factors led to the fırst hiv/aids belt developing in africa. before hiv/aids education was widespread, the disease spread rapidly in subsaharan africa. in 1996, researches mapped areas where males are not commonly circumcised and overlaid the map with the first hiv/aids belt to demonstrate a spatial correlation. knowing this scientists make connections between disease transmission and male circumcision and led to further research. from a geographical tool perspective, what is this a broad example of? o how perceptual regions shape schemata odividing maps into two basic types o-using regions to analyze differences ow a broad range of tools in the discipline of geography are used when doing research
