Abstract

The coronavirus disease (COVID‐19) pandemic has been associated with severe disruptions in health care services, and nonpharmacological measures such as social distancing also have an impact on access to screening tests and on the long‐term care of patients with chronic conditions globally. We aimed to describe the impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on HIV testing and treatment and to describe strategies employed to mitigate the impact of COVID‐19 on HIV care.
