Due to HIV/AIDS Zambia's average life expectancy is ...
 

33 years.

Just think about that for a second.

Compare it to LIFE EXPECTANCY IN MEDIEVAL DARTFORD

All of Dartford?s residents, whether rich or poor, faced the same general environmental conditions and threats, including the constant fear of sickness and life-threatening diseases. Average life expectancy for all groups was low. Archaeological evidence shows an average adult life expectancy of thirty-five for males and thirty-one for females. England?s infant mortality rate was extremely high.

The plague was to visit England at least thirty times between 1348, the year of the Black Death, and 1485. Other common urban diseases included tuberculosis, dysentry and smallpox. Dartford?s residents faced famine in 1391 due to an acute shortage of corn. Townspeople were forced to make bread from fern roots; their survival depended on an emergency diet of nuts and apples. All sections of Dartford?s community were economically inter-dependent. If trade slumped or crops failed everybody was affected.

Yup, and guess what they do. They get about 10 children in those 33 years.

I read that in 3rd world countries it's mostly women who are getting it through heterosexual sex, and they are getting it from their husbands because the husbands will fuck hookers or have anal sex with them without a condom and then pass it on to their wives... sad but true :(

Wow; something to think of for a moment.
To add. Japan still holds the highest life expentancy rate among nations around the world.

It's amazing to think that people have a shorter life expectancy today in some African countries than they did in Europe in the middle ages.

The fucked up thing is that if they weren't dying from aids they would die from starvation... Someone needs to go in there with a lot of condoms and tell them how to take care of themselves and stop relying on food drops and having unprotected sex. Seriously...

I thought I would be dead by 28 just like Janis and Kurt and Jim etc. Guess that theory went out the window.

its hard to convince some people in 1st world countrys to use condoms (mostly morons anyway), let alone people in Africa :2 cents:

whats to think about?
they asked for it, they got it.

I live the next train stop from Dartford...now the biggest thing you have to worry about it not being sucked into the Chav mentality.

thanks for the important info dude.

very sad and it's not going to change anytime soon.

Well hell all they have to do to clense themselves of AIDS is to fuck a virgin ... that's what they believe anyways. GREAT THINKING! :thumbsup

I bet there is a cure out there and the government won't let it out for their own selfish reasons! One being population control! It's about time they got off their asses and apologise and hand us over the cure!

well I better stay outta there.

Where did you read that? Not saying I don't believe you at all, cause I do, I just never would have guessed it to be quite THAT low...

I read somewhere that hookers in Africa sometimes reuse their condoms because they are so expensive. LOL! I think they should probably just charge more instead of trying to cut down on expenses.

Except black death looked sick and stinked badly

How can it be mostly woman who are getting it ? It must go both ways ...

33 is insane ! figure most people don't mature and live their own life
until about 25.


scary shit

I still haven't matured.

dartford is still a shithole though :1orglaugh

But seriously, that is horrible! You would think with all of todays science, something could be done.

World population is going to peak in our lifetimes. The road back down isn't going to be pretty.
