TLDR
Although sex-disaggregated data for COVID-19 show equal numbers of cases between men and women so far, there seem to be sex differences in mortality and vulnerability to the disease, and drug development and clinical evaluation of more potent and specific latency reversal agents alone and in combination are still warranted to determine if this strategy might allow people living with HIV to safely stop ART and achieve a cure.
