Adolescents living with HIV (ALWH) are particularly susceptible to disruptions in care, which may lead to poor HIV-related health outcomes. Here, we report the results of a longitudinal phone-based study investigating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on ALWH in New York City. Participants ( = 10, mean age 21.2 years, 50% female) demonstrated substantial COVID-19 knowledge and identified Instagram as their primary source of COVID-19 information. Nearly all participants reported loss of income, and 50% reported experiencing food insecurity as a result of the pandemic. These findings highlight existing vulnerabilities among ALWH that may threaten the continuum of care.
感染艾滋病毒的青少年（ALWH）特别容易受到医疗中断的影响，这可能导致与艾滋病毒相关的健康结果不佳。在这里，我们报告了一项针对纽约市感染艾滋病毒的青少年的基于电话的纵向研究的结果，该研究调查了 COVID-19 大流行对他们的影响。参与者（n=10，平均年龄 21.2 岁，50%为女性）对 COVID-19 有相当的了解，并表示 Instagram 是他们获取 COVID-19 信息的主要来源。几乎所有的参与者都报告说收入减少了，50%的人表示由于疫情而经历了粮食不安全。这些发现突显了感染艾滋病毒的青少年现有的脆弱性，这可能威胁到他们的医疗连续性。
