COVID-19 in patients with HIV: clinical case series

  • First HIV positive patient from Wuhan, China
  • 5 more HIV positive patients reported in Spain
  • 4 of them were virologically suppressed which caused upper respiratory tract infections as well as viral pneumonia
  • In HIV Spanish patients, all were younger than 50
  • None died at the time of publishing this paper
  • By treating patients with HIV medication, supplementary immune assistance for patients with deficient levels, and SARS-CoV-2 treatment, most have made a full recovery
