"Immune dysfunction and systemic effects in HIV and SARS-CoV-2 infections are
distinct, but share relevant similarities and downstream consequences. We
compare and contrast observations of the immunological impacts of COVID-19 and
HIV infections. By examining shared and distinct mechanisms, such as immune
dysfunction, vulnerability to opportunistic infections, accelerated aging and
neurocognitive disorders, we highlight critical parallels and their
implications. We review the extensive scientific evidence showing that
SARS-CoV-2 infections result in immune cell depletion, dysfunction, and
exhaustion, with impacts on several immune system cell types. Higher rates of
individual susceptibility to infections lead to population-wide increases in
diverse infectious diseases, including those that are signatures of
immunodeficiency. Finally, we characterize societal responses to both
pandemics, providing insights into public health strategies and lessons for
improving current and future research, treatment, preparedness and mitigation
efforts."
