Influenzavirus Infection Is a Primary Cause of Febrile Respiratory Illness in HIV-Infected Adults, Despite Vaccination

Background. There are, to our knowledge, no prospective studies of respiratory tract infections in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)—infected adults in the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) era. We performed a surveillance study of outpatients who presented with fever and respiratory sym...

Description
Summary:Background. There are, to our knowledge, no prospective studies of respiratory tract infections in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)—infected adults in the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) era. We performed a surveillance study of outpatients who presented with fever and respiratory symptoms to examine the role of viral pathogens in these patients. Methods. Consecutive patients with a temperature of
