Abstract
Patients with HIV infection have a high risk of bacterial infection. A high index of suspicion for common and less common bacterial infections is needed, together with a flexible approach to diagnosis and therapy. Many infections are characterized by relapse after therapy; long-term treatment is frequently required.
