Mpox Mortality 27% if CD4s Below 100 With HIV Infection
The researchers proposed the mpox is an opportunistic pathogen, and its severe necrotizing form is an AIDS-defining condition.
Overall, 27 of 382 people (7.1%) with mpox died. More than one quarter, 27.1%, with a CD4 count below 100 died, as did 4.3% with a count between 101 and 200. No one with a higher CD4 count die. Among people with an HIV load below 10,000 copies, 16.2% died, while 0.5% with an undetectable viral load died and no one with a viral load between 51 and 10,000 copies died. Among people with a CD4 count below 100, 7% with a viral load under 50 copies died and 29.7% with a viral load above 10,000 copies died.
