*

ORs adjusted for all variables in the model. Statistically significant ORs (P < 0.05) are shown in boldface type. For CD4 count/percent category there were 15 missing values in moving out of county; and 18 missing values in model for moving out of state.

Excludes those who left state.

In the intercounty model, migrants were people who moved to another Florida county, and non-migrants were people who stayed in the county. In the interstate model, migrants were people who moved to a new state and non-migrants were those who did not leave the state.
