Most-Googled Health Problems in US, State by State

[Extollager]

From Becker Hospital Review, an interesting breakdown. I guess these United States are less homogeneous than might sometimes be supposed by people (in the US or elsewhere) who make assumptions about the health of "Americans."

The most-Googled health problems by state

I guess I would like to see the top 5 for all of those states to see how actually different they are. If ADHD and syphilis are #1 and #2 or #2 and #1, is that really a difference?

What is also interesting is that some of those ailments are the kind people look up about themselves (flu), some are the kind you look up about other people close to you (ADHD), and some are the kind you look up because you heard about it on TV (hepatitis).

I can't imagine what people would think about my health based on the weird medical stuff I google.

Makes sense for Kentucky, as there is an outbreak of hepatitis cases this year that is pretty severe, mostly in the same city.

West Virginia has porn addiction. That's both creepy and hilarious at the same time.

And are the folks in Connecticut so healthy that "quarter-life crisis" is their biggest health concern?
