Factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection among people living with HIV: Data from the Balearic cohort (EVHIA).

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection among people living with HIV (PLWH) has been a matter of research. We evaluated the incidence and factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis among PLWH. We also assessed factors related to vaccination coverage in the Balearic Islands.

Methods

A retrospective analytical study was performed, including patients from the Balearic cohort (EVHIA) who were visited at least twice between 1st January 2020 and 31st March 2022. Chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare categorical and continuous variables respectively. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were estimated to identify risk factors.

Results

A total of 3567 patients with HIV were included. The median age was 51 years (IQR 44-59).
