Low Postseroconversion CD4<sup>+</sup> T-cell Level Is Associated with Faster Disease Progression and Higher Viral Evolutionary Rate in HIV-2 Infection
ABSTRACT A positive correlation between virus evolutionary rate and disease progression has been shown for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Much less is known about HIV-2, the second causative agent of AIDS. We analyzed 528 HIV-2 env V1-C3 sequences generated from longitudinal...

Much less is known about HIV-2, the second causative agent of AIDS.
