Elevated labor migrancy, particularly returning Malawian mine workers from South Africa late1980s/early 1990s, may partly explain emergence of an HIV sub-epicenter from 1994 to 1999 among the northern districts of Nkhata Bay and Rumphi, and Mzuzu city [ 32, 55].
Sub-epicenters emerged around Nkhata Bay district and Mzuzu city in the Northern Region and Lilongwe City and Mchinji district in the Central Regions, but had dissipated by 2003.
The velocity was determined as a ratio of distance from an earthquake's epicenter to Sub-Ionospheric Point (SIP) to the time delay of perturbation registration in the corresponding SIP.
As I mentioned in my recent post on this issue, women in sub-Saharan Africa, the epicenter of the pandemic, are living with HIV but dying from cervical cancer because of the lack of screening.
The first sub-event ruptured around the epicenter during the first 25 s after the initiating earthquake.
Both these sub-clusters have insects from epicenter and epidemic populations (Fig 4).
While sub-Saharan Africa represents the epicenter of the HIV epidemic, studies investigating access and adherence are needed in other resource-constrained parts of the world where population and system-level contextual factors necessitate different approaches.
In addition, considering that the first front of the second sub-event appeared at 74.6 s and was about 28 km away from the epicenter, we propose that the second sub-event might have been triggered by the localized increase in tectonic stress in the vicinity of the hypocenter that resulted from the rupture of the first sub-event.
The largest slip of 5.18 m is estimated to the southwest of the epicenter at the shallow depth of 7.54 km (sub-fault 8).
The largest slips of 4.29 4.66 m are estimated to the southwest of the epicenter, at the shallow depth of 6.09 km (sub-faults 7 and 8).
One of the most damaged areas due to earthquake-induced landslide was in Cumanak Village of Nagari Tandikat, Patamuan sub-district, Padang Pariaman regency, about 60 km from the epicenter.
