?:abstract
  • There is great concern about the impact of COVID-19 among the nearly 40 million people living with HIV (PLWH) worldwide In this review, we surveyed current literature and found no evidence of higher prevalence of COVID-19 among PLWH but equivocal data on increased mortality and worse clinical outcomes Having HIV does not confer protection against severe manifestations of COVID-19 Several studies looking at antiretroviral drugs against HIV to treat SARS-CoV-2 have shown no mortality benefit Thus, there is no indication to change ART regimens among virologically suppressed PLWH to prevent COVID-19 HIV care delivery has been adversely impacted in several countries during this pandemic but has created an opportunity for accelerating effective strategies like multi-month ART Decentralizing HIV care in low-resource settings and incorporating telemedicine in high-resource settings will be critical in mitigating shocks to healthcare systems in the future
