Abstract
Erice et al. (April 22 issue)1 described a patient with symptomatic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection who had a primary infection with a virus resistant to zidovudine. We report the case of a homosexual man in whom clinical symptoms of acute HIV-1 infection developed in May 1992; tests for HIV-1 antibodies were positive in July 1992. His most recent negative HIV-1 test was in November 1991.Keywords
