None of these countries are unavoidable regarding safety or health concerns. You are just prejudiced.
Yeah, I notice, for example, that Taiwan isn't on the list, but Hepatitis A and B have always been endemic to the country. I don't know if that situation has improved more recently, but it was relatively common for contaminated/ill food workers, including among the many street vendors, to work in spite of actively having the disease.
Personally, I wouldn't, and haven't, let that stop me from visiting, though.

Maybe decades ago but that hasn't been the case for a lonnnnng time. There's no epidemic issues here apart from occasional Dengue outbreaks in summer in the south, but you know Singapore has them too.
Besides, Taiwan probably has some of the easiest access to hospitals in the world so your health is not really of any concern if you're just visiting for a few days (unless you eat something you are allergic to or too greasy that your stomach can't digest it). It could be if you're staying for a longer period of time though as the diet here is really unhealthy.
Traffic is more of a problem as people drive/ride like they were all under the influence. That and the fact that it's boring and ugly af so one might be disappointed.
Anyway for me it'd be Russia and Turkey, though it's more due to my own paranoia lol.
I don't think so. These countries aren't "avoidable" because of health or security concerns except a few areas. In other parts you just have to take a few basic measurements, and other areas are just plain safe.
What "health concerns" exist in all the territory of these countries?

What if i'm interested in these "few areas"?
Poor hygiene, diseases, viruses and food poisoning.
Turkey was safe a few years, and now it's bombarded by the odd terrorist event that happens out of nowhere and pretty much anywhere in Istanbul.
Iraq is my homeland. I really want to know my roots and see the land between the two mighty rivers. But alas, that region is stained with Islamic terrorism and corruption.
1) Sweden - Rape Capital of the West
2) Germany - Migrants everywhere
3) France - Terrorists blowing up things left and right
4) Russia - The Reds send you to a GULAG
5) England - Muslim no-go zones
6) Denmark - Too much socialism
7) Mexico - self-explanatory

In reality, only Iraq comes to mind. Countries like Somalia, Yemen and Honduras I'm not very interested in.
