HIV Maps for Karonga
The below maps estimate variation in HIV prevalence, viral load suppression, and HIV viremia using population-based surveys and routine health surveillance data. These maps visualize these estimates by administrative unit and by catchment areas for each health facility offering HIV services in Malawi.
Users can toggle between various levels of spatial resolution to identify differences in indicators by district, traditional authority, facility catchment, or group village head (a cluster of small villages).
When combined with local expertise, these maps can help to:
- Identify areas with high prevalence of the mapped indicators/estimates
- Drive decisions around health services by identifying priority areas
- Optimize resource allocation for improved outcomes in low-resource settings
- Investigate reasons for differences between areas
- Tailor care and interventions to match local circumstances and need
It is important to remember that maps are tools, not answers. Maps should be combined with knowledge of the local context for informed decision making.
