Impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on prescriptions for antiretroviral drugs for HIV treatment in the United States, 2019–2021
Conclusions: We demonstrated a decrease in the number of persons with active antiretroviral prescriptions during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic and the number did not return to levels expected in the absence of the pandemic. Disruptions in HIV care and decreased ART may lead to lower levels of viral suppression and immunologic control, and increased HIV transmission in the community.

Cancers, Vol. 14, Pages 4820: Impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic on Cervical Cancer Screening in Gynecological Practices in Germany
Conclusions: We found a statistically and clinically relevant decrease of patients receiving CCS in gynecological practices in Germany. This finding is even more exceptional because the new screening algorithm with direct invitations for each patient started in 2020 and was supposed to lead to a higher number of patients in its first years. However, the observed decline in the detection of cervical precancer lesions may lead to increased cervical cancer burden. Risk-based screening strategies and further measures are necessary to adapt to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and return to pre-pandemic CCS numbers.
