Abstract
Using data from 67 Ugandan human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) clinics (July 2019-January 2022), we report a 40% (1005/1662) reduction in the number of people with HIV presenting to care after August 2021 compared to prepandemic levels, with a greater proportion presenting with advanced HIV disease (20% vs 16% in the pre-coronavirus disease 2019 period).
