Figure O. Gonorrhea — Prevalence among 16-24 year-old women entering the National Job Training Program by state of residence, 2000

Figure O. Gonorrhea - Prevalence among 16-24 year-old women entering the National Job Training Program by state of residence, 2000

*Fewer than 100 women residing in these states and entering the National Job Training Program were screened for gonorrhea by the national contract laboratory in 2000.

Note: Many training centers test female students for gonorrhea using local laboratories; these results are not available to CDC. For this map, gonorrhea test results for students at centers submitting specimens to the national contract laboratory were included if the number of gonorrhea tests submitted was greater than 90% of the number of chlamydia tests submitted. The overall gonorrhea prevalence among female students entering the National Job Training Program in 2000 was 3.3%.
