P values are from a Fisher exact test for differences in prevalences by HIV status. Data on presence of cough, hemoptysis or night sweats were missing for each of three separate HIV-uninfected participants. Data on duration of cough were missing for five HIV-uninfected participants and one HIV-infected participant. Data on duration of fever were missing for three HIV-uninfected participants and two HIV-infected participants.
