Abstract

The study was conducted to describe the results of treatment of HIV/AIDS patients co-infected with COVID-19 at the National Hospital of Tropical Diseases, from January 2022 to June 2023. 97 patients were included in the study. Results: The proportion of patients with severe immunodeficiency (CD4 < 200 cells/mm3) was 81.0%, with mild immunodeficiency (CD4 from 200 - 499) was 15.8%, no impairment immunity (CD4 ≥ 500) was 3.2%. 40.2% of patients were discharged from the hospital, and 41.2% were transferred to another hospital. 15.5% of patients became seriously ill and requested to be discharged home, and 3.1% passed away. The average treatment time was 18 ± 13.1 days.
