Their strategy depends upon achieving a treatment coverage goal of 90% by 2030. However, distance to healthcare and lack of transportation are major barriers to accessing HIV treatment in SSA. I will use data-based geospatial modeling to determine their potential impact as barriers to elimination in Malawi. I will address two specific questions: How much time would people living with HIV (PLHIV) need to spend travelling to access treatment in order for Malawi to achieve UNAIDS\u2019 goal of 90% coverage? Could providing bicycles to rural communities help eliminate HIV?\r\nOur results show that it will only be possible to achieve UNAIDS\u2019 90% coverage goal in Malawi if many of the PLHIV (who have yet to initiate treatment) are willing, and able, to spend a great deal of time travelling to access treatment. Additionally, they show that making bicycles available to PLHIV in rural areas has the potential to make the 90% target goal more attainable, and hence to help eliminate HIV in Malawi.\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNAIDS has proposed an ambitious strategy for ending the HIV pandemic.
