A study is examining how people living with HIV faced the COVID-19 crisis in North Africa from a syndemic perspective. This approach considers the interplay between HIV and other health issues, such as tuberculosis, viral hepatitis, and opioid use disorder. Research on syndemics is also being applied in other contexts, including the United States, Belize, and Kenya, to understand the impact of COVID-19 on people living with HIV and other health conditions.
