Figure 3

Map of Africa showing the occurrence of HHV-8 genotypes. There appears to be a general distribution of different genotypes across the continent. Of note is the identification of K15 genotype N in Southern Africa only (Zambia and South Africa). Countries without indications had no published data on HHV-8 genotypes between 1998–2017. The size of the circles indicates the relative proportion of occurrence of the different genotypes in the different countries. Overall, K1 genotypes A5 and B, and K15 genotypes P and M are the most common throughout the continent [23,26,29,30,31,37,38,39,42,44,50,56,57,67,88,99,100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108,109].
