Impact of coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 on HIV replication in CNS is unknown. SARS-CoV-2 could alter the BBB permeability and cause a CNS HIV escape. Few symptoms during COVID-19 suggest a contained inflammatory response in CNS/plasma. Poor immunological recovery might contribute to avoid immune-pathogenetic processes. We report twocases of HIV positive patients with COVID-19 infection and a recent diagnosis of opportunistic infections of central nervous system (CNS). We investigated the potential impact of coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 on HIV replication in CNS.

Abstract

Impact of coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 on HIV replication in CNS is unknown. SARS-CoV-2 could alter the BBB permeability and cause a CNS HIV escape. Few symptoms during COVID-19 suggest a contained inflammatory response in CNS/plasma. Poor immunological recovery might contribute to avoid immune-pathogenetic processes. We report twocases of HIV positive patients with COVID-19 infection and a recent diagnosis of opportunistic infections of central nervous system (CNS). We investigated the potential impact of coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 on HIV replication in CNS.
