Indeed, 40 million people worldwide are infected with HIV. Among them, 95% live in developing countries. HIV/aids has killed more than twenty million people worldwide in the past twenty five years, and aids is the leading cause of death in Africa and the fourth most prominent cause of death worldwide.
