Our study revealed factors favoring virologic failure included being female, younger age, CD4+ count <200 cells/µL, tuberculosis and initiation of ART at CD4+ count <350 cell/µL. Multidisciplinary HIV comprehensive care teams should encourage patient adherence and support patients along HIV continuum of care to prevent virologic failure and drug resistance, especially among patients initiating ART at low CD4+ count and tuberculosis co-infection.
