Objective: The study analyzed people with HIV (PWH) measles seroprevalence and response to MMR booster given to seronegative individuals.
Design: A prospective cohort study with four groups: vertically (v-HIV), horizontally infected (h-HIV) individuals, and two control groups. An MMR booster was offered to seronegative individuals.
Results: Measles seropositivity and IgG antibodies were significantly lower in v-HIV than in the other groups. All measles seronegative patients responded to booster.
Conclusion: An MMR booster must be sought during adolescence in vertically PWH.
