According to the report announced at the Fifth International HIV Conference in March 2016 in Moscow, the following ranking of 10 countries by the number of people infected with AIDS is compiled. The incidence of AIDS in these countries is so high that it has the status of an epidemic.

AIDS - Acquired immune deficiency syndrome due to HIV infection. It is the last stage of the HIV-infected disease, accompanied by the development of infection, tumor manifestations, general weakness, and ultimately leads to death.

10th place. Zambia

1.2 million patients with 14 million people. Therefore, there is nothing surprising in the fact that the average life expectancy there is 38 years.

9th place. Russia

In 2016, the number of people infected with AIDS in Russia exceeded 1 million people according to Russian health care, 1.4 million according to the EECAAS-2016 report. Moreover, the number of infected in the past few years is actively growing. For example: every 50th resident of Yekaterinburg is HIV-positive.

In Russia, more than half of the patients were infected through a needle during drug injection. For no country in the world is this infection pathway the main one. Why exactly in Russia such statistics? Many say that this was a refusal to use methadone, taken orally, as a substitute for an injectable drug.

Many people mistakenly believe that the problem of infection of drug addicts is only their problem, it is not so scary if the “dregs of society” acquire diseases that lead to deaths. A drug user is not a monster that can easily be identified in a crowd. He leads a completely ordinary lifestyle for a long time. Therefore, spouses and children of drug addicts are often infected. There are cases when infection occurs in clinics and beauty salons after poor disinfection of instruments.

Until society realizes the real threat, until random partners stop evaluating the presence of STDs by eye, until the government changes attitudes towards drug addicts, we will rapidly rise in this rating.

8th place. Kenya

6.7% of the population of this former English colony are carriers of HIV, namely 1.4 million people. Moreover, among women, infection is higher, since in Kenya the social level of the female population is low. Perhaps the role is also played by the rather free manners of Kenyaks - they are easily suitable for sex.

7th place. Tanzania

Of the 49 million people in this African country, just over 5% (1.5 million) are ill with AIDS. There are areas in which the infection rate exceeds 10%: it is far from the Njobe tourist routes and the capital of Tanzania is Dar es Salaam.

6th place. Uganda

The government of this country is making tremendous efforts to combat HIV. For example, if in 2011, 28 thousand children were born with HIV, in 2015 - 3.4 thousand. The number of new infections in the adult population has also decreased by 50%. The 24-year-old King Toro (one of the regions of Uganda) took control of the epidemic and promised to stop the epidemic by 2030. In this country, one and a half million patients.

5th place. Mozambique

More than 10% of the population (1.5 million people) are infected with HIV, and the country does not have its own forces to fight the disease. About 0.6 million children in this country are orphans due to the death of their parents from AIDS.

4th place. Zimbabwe

1.6 million infected per 13 million inhabitants. These figures are the result of widespread prostitution, a lack of basic knowledge about contraception, and general poverty.

3rd place. India

Official figures - about 2 million patients, unofficial - much higher. Traditional Indian society is rather closed, many ignore health problems. Educational work with young people is practically not carried out; it is unethical to talk about condoms in schools. Hence, almost complete illiteracy in matters of protection, which distinguishes this country from the countries of Africa, where it is not a problem to get condoms. According to surveys, 60% of Indian women have never heard of AIDS.

2nd place. Nigeria

3.4 million HIV patients per 146 million people, less than 5% of the population. The number of infected women is higher than men. Since there is no free medicine in the country, the most terrible situation is in the poor.

1 place. South Africa

The country with the highest incidence of AIDS. Approximately 15% of the population is infected with the virus (6.3 million). About a quarter of high school girls already have HIV. Life expectancy is 45 years. Imagine a country where few have grandparents. Fearfully? Although South Africa is recognized as the most economically developed country in Africa, most of the population lives below the poverty line. The government is working hard to stop the spread of AIDS, free condoms and testing are provided. However, the poor are convinced that AIDS is the invention of whites, as well as condoms, and therefore both should be avoided.

Borders on South Africa. Swaziland is a country with a population of 1.2 million people, half of whom are HIV-positive. The average resident of Swaziland does not live up to 37 years.
