Does long COVID in people living with HIV resemble the functional phenotype of non-HIV individuals who had moderate or severe acute COVID-19? A retrospective cross-sectional study
Our results indicate that even 2 years post-COVID-19 infection, PLWH exhibits significantly decreased spirometry compared to the seCOV group. Despite this lung function impairment, their functional capacity was similar to individuals with PACS following mild/moderate COVID-19.
