The symposium will address difficulties in ascertaining HIV status among persons with early infection and managing acute or recent HIV infections that arise when they occur in people on PrEP or PEP or those started immediately on ART shortly after viral acquisition, with an emphasis on how these issues manifest in low and middle-income countries (LMIC). New data and guidance relevant to LMIC will be presented regarding 1) AHI diagnostic strategies and early intervention – challenges and relevance to HIV cure efforts; 2) Early treatment and long-term outcomes; and 3) AHI and PrEP – diagnostic and management challenges
