Individuals with prolonged SARS-CoV-2 infection, regardless of their HIV-1 status, develop cross-reactive binding and neutralizing antibodies. However, the mechanisms of cross-reactive responses likely differ between people living with and without HIV. People with HIV may develop higher titer antibody responses, which could result in the elicitation of low-frequency cross-reactive antibodies. - Prof. Jinal N. Bhiman
