People living with HIV may show rapid deterioration in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection as a result of physiological or psychological vulnerability. Additionally, the spread of COVID-19—especially in low- and middle-income countries—may limit HIV control measures, delivery and linkage to HIV care and prevention.
