It is not far fetched to assume hiv rates are lower than other regions of Africa but I wouldn’t have any confidence saying it’s low as the middle east or even non existent, Somalia after all is still located on the continent and there is some mixing between Somalis and Kenyans/Ethiopians (where as Arabs don’t mix with hiv ravaged communities).Those are just two maps. Other heat maps show we're about the same low rate as Arab countries. Cuz apparently of those Eurasian virus fighting genes for Norovirus and Hepatitis and HIV.
Somali healthcare and reporting is literally non existent. Again rates are probably way lower but who the hell knows what’s going on…
