Adolescents with nonperinatally acquired HIV face larger projected life expectancy losses than those with perinatally acquired HIV when compared with uninfected peers.
Projected life expectancy losses reached 15.0 years for males and 19.5 years for females with nonperinatally acquired HIV, whereas ideal care reduced perinatal losses.
Simulation using a state-transition HIV model highlights that expanded care retention and social interventions are essential to narrow persistent mortality disparities.
