I am epidemiologist and i know that there is a link between the rate of 
myocardial infarction and the number of TV in a population. But TV is not 
the reason of this desease : rich country have more TV and too rich nutrition.
A statistical link is not a cause. Poor population have more AIDS risk for 
many reasons : illeteracy, education level, less prevention ... and so on. 
Because they have less prevention, public health services are focusing 
vaccination programs on this area ... and have to improve AIDS prevention !
