Are people with HIV at a higher risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes?

The research review indicates that people with HIV, especially those with low CD4 cell counts, face greater risks of severe COVID-19 outcomes and have suboptimal immune responses to SARS-CoV-2. Antiretroviral therapy aids in clearing infections, and a third vaccine dose reduces the risk of breakthrough infections among this population.
