ABSTRACT
Because individuals with HIV are living longer, comorbidities are moving to the forefront of HIV patient care. People with HIV have a higher risk for HIV-related and non-HIV-related cancers than the general population, making cancer screening vital for this population. Immunizations are another important element of primary care for older adults with HIV, including a COVID-19 vaccine, about which data continue to evolve. This article summarizes a presentation by Steven C. Johnson, MD, at the International Antiviral Society-USA (IAS-USA) virtual HIV course Aging and HIV: Issues, Screening, and Management in Individuals with HIV as They Age in June 2021.
