According to OECD data, population of Developed (OECD) countries as at 2004 was 1,160,738,000 people. World population, according to the US Census bureau was 6,376,863,118 people. This means the population of "third-world" countries is 5,216,125,118 people.

Population:\n186,112,794 (July 2005 est.)\nnote: Brazil took a count in August 2000, which reported a population of 169,799,170; that figure was about 3.3% lower than projections by the US Census Bureau, and is close to the implied underenumeration of 4.6% for the 1991 census; estimates for this country explicitly take into account the effects of excess mortality due to AIDS; this can result in lower life expectancy, higher infant mortality and death rates, lower population and growth rates, and changes in the distribution of population by age and sex than would otherwise be expected\n\nAge structure:\n0-14 years: 26.1% (male:24,789,495; female:23,842,715)\n15-64 years: 67.9% (male:62,669,392; female:63,719,631)\n65 years and over: 6% (male:4,549,552; female:6,542,009) (2005)

I think of Africa as a place - the continent that contains a diversity of terrains, countries, peoples, and cultures. It is home to those things you mentioned - the African racial group, the Sahara and Namibian deserts, African elephants, but it is also home of Egypt, with its ancient history, and Nigeria, with its rapid growth partially fueled by oil reserves, and Rwanda, a site of tribal genocide. It is the home of dwindling numbers of gorillas and chimpanzees, and Charlize Theron and Desmond Tutu, of the Darfur region of Sudan. Many countries are impoverished, especially the landlocked ones or ones that have suffered from the lack of economic development or borders carved out by European colonial interests that may make little sense today. While there is poverty and AIDS in many places, there is also some progress toward sustainable development and gender equality.

Africa the Continent is not to blame for the problems you listed.\n\nselfish people have been plundering africa for centuries.\n\nRemoving the victims of this plunder will not bring back the forests and other habitats the animals need.

If you want a number, you will have to narrow down the area you are talking about.  According to the following quote, you could say that of people aged 15-24 years old in Sub-Sahara Africa, about 6.5% have HIV (the most common form of STD).\n\n"Sub-Saharan Africa has just over 10% of the world’s population, but is home to more than 60% of all people living with HIV—25.8 million. In 2005, an estimated 3.2 million people in the region became newly infected, while 2.4 million adults and children died of AIDS. Among young people aged 15–24 years, an estimated 4.6% [4.2–5.5%] of women and 1.7% [1.3–2.2%] of men were living with HIV in 2005."
