Sumario:Globally, in 2019, HIV infection was still responsible for 1.7 million new infections and for 690,000 deaths in the same year. Tailored and new antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens, individualised follow-up and new technologies to support data-sharing between health-care professional caring for people living with HIV (PLHIV) and to deliver ART to patients are desperately needed to reach the 90-90-90-90 ambitious goals. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus, responsible for the Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) pandemic that spread globally in 2020, posed a huge challenge for PLHIV and HIV physicians worldwide in terms of continuum of care. In this paper we encourage “up-to-date patient-centred HIV medicine” and we give nine ideas to improve HIV management in clinical practice during the COVID-19 pandemic.
