According to the findings of a survey by IPSOS, nearly every country in the study overestimates the proportion of deaths resulting from HIV/AIDS or sexually transmitted infections (STIs). A standout exception is South Africa, with an actual 28.8 percent compared to an estimated 10.8 percent of deaths due to HIV/AIDS or STIs. This statistic shows the actual vs public estimates for number of deaths per 100 which occur as a result of HIV/AIDS or STIs, worldwide as of 2019, by country.
