That means researchers can analyse the results in more detail. He told Reuters: None of the existing commercially available vaccines produces cross-reactivity with HIV tests so there is no basis to think that COVID vaccination or booster vaccination induces false positive HIV tests. Adalja added that no commercially available COVID-19 vaccine or booster doses contain any HIV components. The Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine is the first to publish peer-reviewed efficacy results.

Thats why its still important to pursue a broad portfolio of vaccine approaches and technologies. A person may test positive for COVID-19 after vaccination because they have become infected with the virus or because of a false positive test result. Certain COVID-19 vaccine candidates could increase susceptibility to HIV, warns a group of researchers who in 2007 learned that an experimental HIV vaccine had raised in some people the risk for infection with the AIDS virus. A 2010 meta-analysis found a 1.4% risk of transmission, or 1 in every 71 exposures, from unprotected anal sex, regardless of whether the receptive person is male or female. 2023 Healthline Media UK Ltd, Brighton, UK.
