Mid-50s-yr-old man with HIV since the early 1990s presented for evaluation of persistent low-level viremia, despite consistent engagement in care and ART. Genotypic testing found only a variety of minor mutations. The patient and his care provider were concerned about the health consequences, including the risk of inflammatory diseases in the future, and about implications for U=U. After a brief discussion of the good news on lenacapavir for HIV prevention and a reminder about mpox vaccination, Drs. Scully and Hoffmann delve into the patient’s history to uncover the source of his LLV and treatment options.
