From the CIA World Factbook (http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/gm.html#Comm):
general assessment: Germany has one of the world's most technologically advanced telecommunications systems; as a result of intensive capital expenditures since reunification, the formerly backward system of the eastern part of the country, dating back to World War II, has been modernized and integrated with that of the western part
domestic: Germany is served by an extensive system of automatic telephone exchanges connected by modern networks of fiber-optic cable, coaxial cable, microwave radio relay, and a domestic satellite system; cellular telephone service is widely available, expanding rapidly, and includes roaming service to many foreign countries
international: Germany's international service is excellent worldwide, consisting of extensive land and undersea cable facilities as well as earth stations in the INMARSAT, INTELSAT, EUTELSAT, and INTERSPUTNIK satellite systems (2001)

Man, WE all know how you get AIDS.
They dont. There is just no money (and people) to educate them. A majority has not even a clue what "a virus" is.
They do not have the choice to not share a needle, when there are not enough one-use needles in their hospitals. If there is a hospital at all. Its die or die.
In Baldurs Gate you could easily kill 10 vampires in like 5 minutes. In a pen and paper game we once needed 6 hours with a party of 5 players to kill one. And every single minute was pure fun.
The rules may be the same, but the games are very different.
