En Latinoamérica, la región con la tasa de frecuencia mas alta de SIDA segunda a la región de África sub-Sahara, las mujeres constituyen la mayoría de los recién infectados.

Is there a way to translate sub-saharan Africa?
Hola:

Me parece correcto.
sub-saharan, of or relating to or situated in the region south of the Sahara Desert

Aquí un par de definiciones:
Sub-Saharan Africa, Africa south of the Sahara Desert, is the term used to describe those countries of Africa that are not part of North Africa. In the 19th century Sub-Saharan Africa was commonly known as Black Africa or as Dark Africa, partly because of the race of its native inhabitants and partly because much of it had not been fully mapped or explored (Africa as a whole was sometimes labelled "the dark continent"). These terms are now obsolete, and often considered to be offensive. ..
