Recovery of COVID-19 in a patient with recent diagnosis of HIV infection
Abstract
As of May 28, 2020, 5 765 094 cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been reported in 188 countries on five continents. Between March 6, 2020, and May 25, 2020, in Peru, a total of 129 751 confirmed cases have been registered. Since the first reports from Wuhan in China in December, 2019, Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was described in only one patient with HIV in Wuhan, China. Only a few reports or case series have been published regarding the course of SARS-CoV-2 in patients with HIV.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case series, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
