Abstract
The present study confirms the high prevalence of subtype C and BC recombinants in Santa Catarina State and revealed a significant difference in the subtype distribution among distinct virus exposure categories. This study also shows a relative high prevalence of protease/reverse transcriptase primary drug resistance mutations and corroborates the usefulness of the integrase inhibitors in southern Brazil.
