Hosted by Eileen Scully, MD, PhD, and Christopher Hoffmann, MD, MSC, MPH, both HIV specialists at Johns Hopkins, Viremic explores quandaries in adult HIV care. Each case discussion includes medical history and diagnoses, challenges in care and treatment, and key evidence and guidelines that informed clinical decision‑making.
Cases are presented as a composite from the hosts’ clinical practice, with all identifying details removed to protect the privacy of patients. Case discussions are for informational purposes only and not offered as medical or clinical practice advice for patients or clinicians. Any mention of specific medications or commercially available products is a description of use only, not an endorsement.
