Abstract: The role of HIV in coronavirus disease 2019 acquisition is not yet understood. Among 1862 patients, including 349 people with HIV-with most of these being virally suppressed and 308 having recently used pre-exposure prophylaxis-we compared rates of positive polymerase chain reaction results. Positivity was higher among people with HIV (10.6%) compared with HIV-negative patients (7.1%) but was not significant in adjusted models.
