An estimate of excess deaths among people with HIV during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic in the United States, 2020

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We developed an ad hoc method to estimate the number of excess deaths among persons with HIV (PWH) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in the United States. Using this method, we estimated approximately 1448 excess deaths from COVID-19 among PWH in 2020 in the United States. We also developed an Excel workbook for use as a tool to quickly assess excess deaths among PWH in settings with limited surveillance data.
