| description | Aim COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 is spreading
throughout the world affecting both healthy individuals and people
with underlying immune-deficiencies. People living with human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) consist a group multiply affected
by this universal crisis.
Methods Literature search aiming to identify relevant publications referring to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in
HIV infected population.
Results A body of literature is rapidly growing in regard to epidemiological data, the interaction between HIV and SARS-CoV-2,
and clinical outcome in people living with HIV. Intensive research is warranted to identify any interactions of the co-existence of
the two viruses in the immune system of HIV infected patients as
common pathophysiology and molecular aspects are recognized.
Human relations are diminished as a result of the social measures,
and detailed recording of the consequences in this population is
needed.
Conclusion Further research could shed light on the common underlying molecular mechanisms of both conditions in an attempt to
discover treatment regimens for SARS-CoV-2 infection. |
