| Description | Data on children and adolescents with HIV and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) co-infection are limited. Clinical and antibody data related to COVID-19 infection in adolescents living with perinatally acquired HIV (ALPHIV) and originally enrolled in the Children with HIV Early Antiretroviral Therapy (CHER) study were collected. We present a descriptive analysis of 53 ALPHIV who were tested for anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Just over half (53%) of the adolescents tested had positive anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies with only one participant describing a prior history of possible symptomatic infection.Contribution: The study contributes to the understanding of SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination practices in HIV-positive adolescents. | |
