An HIV-COVID-19 co-infection dynamics is modeled mathematically assimilating the vaccination mechanism that incorporates endogenous modification of human practices generated by the COVID-19 prevalence, absorbing the relevance of the treatment mechanism in suppressing the co-infection burden. Envisaging a COVID-19 situation, the HIV-subsystem is analyzed by introducing COVID-19 vaccination for the HIV-infected population as a prevention, and the "vaccination influenced basic reproduction number" of HIV is derived. The mono-infection systems experience forward bifurcation that evidences the persistence of diseases above unit epidemic thresholds.

We analyze the model and its submodels with single infections individually. We obtain the awareness-induced basic reproduction numbers and discuss the global stability of disease-free equilibrium when provision limitation is zero.
