Health in Bahrain information


Life expectancy in Bahrain at birth in 2013 was 76 for men and 78 for women.[1] Compared to many countries in the region, the prevalence of AIDS and HIV is relatively low.[2] Malaria and tuberculosis (TB) do not constitute major problems in Bahrain as neither disease is indigenous to the country. As a result, cases of malaria and TB have declined in recent decades with cases of contractions amongst Bahraini nationals becoming rare.[2] The Ministry of Health sponsors regular vaccination campaigns against TB and other diseases such as hepatitis B.[2][3]
