Abstract
Women who were infected with HIV-1 with antepartum serologic and genital tract evidence of HSV-2 coinfection did not appear to have an increased risk of perinatal HIV-1 transmission. However, further investigations are needed to assess HSV-2 reactivation and the risk of perinatal HIV-1 transmission at the time of delivery.
