7. United Kingdom
Percentage of adults living with HIV/AIDS: 0.33
Over a 100,000 people in the UK have HIV, though 13% of these people do not even know about their condition. Around two-fifths of the total people who were treated for HIV actually began treatment later than they should have, which can lead to severe consequences. A person who is diagnosed late is 9 times more likely to succumb to the disease when compared with a person who seeks treatment on time. Thus, it can be assumed that the awareness pertaining to HIV is not at the level it should be at in the UK. A highly disproportionate number of HIV victims are black Africans, who only make up 2% of the total UK population.
