Botswana, Africa's middle class but...

[Wareer]

With per capita income of $ 12,000 per person but the country has one of the highest rates of AIDS.

What do you think is the cause?

Wareer,

They have better testing of HIV/AIDS and better medical facilities. Imagine the rate in a poor nation like Congo.

Every HIV patient in Botwsana gets their HIV med.s

It could be because they are middle class. With more money and better access to medical attention maybe they are able to keep better track of who has the disease and who doesn’t. There aids rate may not be so high in comparison to other Africans after all.
