HIV and SARS-CoV-2 co-infection: cross-sectional findings from a German ‘hotspot’

ConclusionThe seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 co-infection in people living with HIV as found in our study does not seem to exceed previous reports from general populations of ‘hot-sport’ areas; comparative data from the Munich population can be expected to be published soon. Our data also highlight, once more, the need to do confirmatory testing on positive samples to minimize the impact of false-positive results.
