Neonatal deaths among infants born to women living with HIV in the UK and Ireland

Conclusions: The vertical transmission rate in the UK, at 3 per 1000, is now lower than the neonatal mortality rate among infants born to women living with HIV. More research is needed to investigate the complex relationship between ART, preterm delivery and neonatal death in order to improve all perinatal outcomes.
