Counts from individual counties do not add to 710 because some respondents chose not to report their county.

“Chronic conditions” was a yes/no variable based on participants reporting that they had HIV/AIDS, cancer, diabetes, a physical disability, a heart condition, STIs (such as herpes), arthritis, COPD/asthma, a chronic mental health condition, and “other”. Participants who reported “other” reported digestive issues, chronic pain, high blood pressure, gonadal issues related to disorders of sexual development or hormone regulation/production issues, and high cholesterol.
