38 of the 40 shortest expectancies are in Africa, that's sad. Surprising though that Algerians is 24 years longer-lived than their neighbours from Mali. The Mediterranean air must be very healthy indeed.

@cuendillar: Not really surprising when you consider where in both countries the people live. The vast majority of Algerians live in a thin strip in the far north along the sea; the vast majority of Malians live in a little blob in the far south, in the desert, 1000+ miles away. Neighbors technically, but worlds apart.

Yeah, and Uganda's not in the bottom 10 yet, but watch them skyrocket if they enact their new proposed laws to make homosexuality a capital offense and further stigmatize HIV. No Ugandan in their right mind would go for an HIV test under the new law, so they may yet challenge the Swazilands of the world for HIV infection rates.

Yus! Andorra is my favorite country, and has been for a while! (And Sweden is my second favorite!)

I'm assuming Australia is only up there because most Australians are too stupid to die.
