'What doesn't kill you. . .': A qualitative analysis of factors impacting the quality of life of people living with HIV.

Despite viral suppression, people living with HIV (PLHIV) report lower quality of life (QoL) than the general population, negatively impacting treatment adherence and wellbeing. This qualitative study explored factors influencing QoL of PLHIV. Participants completed a QoL questionnaire, with cut-off scores used to allocate participants into Low-Moderate QoL ( = 11) or High-Very High QoL ( = 10) focus groups.
