Africa & the AIDS Epidemic

Impact of AIDS

More than 16 million people have died from AIDS since the 1980s, 60 percent of them in sub-Saharan Africa.

AIDS has significantly shortened the life expectancy in many countries. For example, in Namibia, the life expectancy without AIDS is 70.1 years. Factoring in AIDS, the life expectancy falls to 38.9 years.

In Zimbabwe, the life expectancy without AIDS is 69.5 years. Factoring in AIDS, it falls to 38.8 years.

AIDS has left about 9 million children without their mothers or both parents, the vast majority of them in sub-Saharan Africa.
