Egypt has a low prevalence rate of HIV/AIDS of less than 0.02% with some groups being at a higher infection risk, said Health Minister Maha el-Rebat. The estimated rate of infection in Egypt is less than 4 in every one million people, she said during a meeting at the Arab League held on the occasion of launching the 2013 regional report on HIV/AIDS for the Middle East and North Africa region by the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS. Although the infection rate is considered low in Egypt, efforts have to keep going to control its prevalence, especially that the MENA region has the highest spread and infection risk rate, she said.
