由于缺乏当地诊所,新南威尔士农村妇女要接受抗逆转录病毒药物治疗,旅行时间很长,费用昂贵。 Rural NSW women face long, costly trips for IVF due to lack of local clinics.

新南威尔士中西部地区的妇女面临获得抗逆转录病毒药物的重大障碍,只有一家诊所提供全套手术,迫使像Dubbo居民Skye Stephenson这样的病人多次前往悉尼接受五到六小时的关键治疗。 Women in New South Wales’s Central West face major hurdles accessing IVF, with only one clinic offering full procedures, forcing patients like Dubbo resident Skye Stephenson to make repeated five- to six-hour trips to Sydney for critical treatments. 有限的当地选择、最后一刻的时间安排,以及需要休假、住宿和儿童保育,都增加了情感和财政压力。 Limited local options, last-minute scheduling, and the need for time off work, accommodation, and childcare add emotional and financial strain. 虽然远程保健和初步评估可以在当地获得,但全方位的抗逆转录病毒药物护理仍无法在区域范围得到。 While telehealth and initial assessments are available locally, full IVF care remains out of reach regionally. 政府的支持如2 000美元的回扣和旅费补助, 虽有帮助, 但并没有消除负担, 让许多农村家庭难为人父母, Government support like a $2,000 rebate and travel assistance helps but doesn’t eliminate the burden, leaving many rural families with a difficult, costly path to parenthood.
