被称为 COVID-19 的新型冠状病毒疾病的出现给艾滋病毒感染者 (PLWH) 带来了另一个健康负担，他们面临多种发病情况，并且可能因 COVID-19 而面临更高的严重身体健康疾病风险。我们解决 PLWH 发病率的能力必须与社会产生的负担一起考虑，这些负担既使该人群面临感染 COVID-19 的风险，又增加了出现不良结果的可能性。这些负担会影响感染者的身体、情感和社会福祉，并干扰有效医疗保健的提供和艾滋病毒治疗的获得。我们认为，流行病框架可用于概念化 COVID-19 对 PLWH 的潜在影响，为卫生规划服务的发展提供信息。
The emergence of the novel coronavirus disease known as COVID-19 creates another health burden for people living with HIV (PLWH) who face multiple morbidities and may be at heightened risk for severe physical health illness from COVID-19. Our abilities to address these morbidities in PLWH must be considered alongside the socially-produced burdens that both place this population at risk for COVID-19 and heighten the likelihood of adverse outcomes. These burdens can affect the physical, emotional, and social well-being of PLWH and interfere with the delivery of effective healthcare and access to HIV treatment. We posit that a syndemic framework can be used to conceptualize the potential impact of COVID-19 among PLWH to inform the development of health programming services.
