“…Seroprevalence of COVID-19 among people living with HIV varies from study to study [21][22][23][24] 24 and Dutschke et al, 21 also found high anti-SARS CoV-2 seroprevalence in unvaccinated PLHIV, at 28.70% and 27.70% respectively. These high seroprevalences in unvaccinated patients reflect a significant circulation of SARS-CoV-2 in this vulnerable population.…”

“…Our findings showed that Ziguinchor was the second locality with the highest SARS-CoV-2 total Ab seroprevalence (68.1%). The seroprevalence founded in the bordering after the first 3 transmission waves were also high, among pregnant women in Gambia (90%), among adults involved in health care and health research (18%) [38], in unvaccinated people living with HIV (27.7%) [39] in Guinea-Bissau, and in general population in Guinea Conakry (42.4%) [40,41]. Ultimately, the high seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 total Ab observed in this unvaccinated subpopulation could also be explained by the circulation of the highly transmissible omicron and delta variants during the second and third waves of the COVID-19 epidemic in Senegal [42,43].…”

“…Underreporting has also been claimed to be responsible for the lower COVID-19 disease burden in Africa compared to other parts of the world ( 26 28 ). Our study corroborates this claim as 42% of our participants who showed evidence of previous infection were never reported as confirmed cases of COVID-19.…”
