An explosive outbreak of HIV-1 caused by the recombinant subtype AE (CRF01-AE) was detected in 1998 among Finnish injecting drug users (IDUs). These IDUs were compared with IDUs from the Amsterdam Cohort Study (ACS) infected with subtype B, to detect possible differences between 2 western IDU cohorts infected with different subtypes. Markers for progression ( viral load and CD4+ lymphocyte count) were compared between 93 IDUs with CRF01-AE and 63 IDUs with subtype B. Only persons with a seroconversion interval
