Abstract
Among the Malawian infants living with HIV and hospitalized with severe pneumonia, bacteria (87%), viruses (85%) and fungi (40%) were detected in the respiratory tract. All infants had polymicrobial codetection, and differences in respiratory microbial codetection groups were significantly associated with age and HIV viral load.
