Mortality at 1 year (Panel A), 2 years (Panel B), and 5 years (Panel C) after entering HIV care among 82,766 people entering care for HIV at a US NA-ACCORD clinical site between 1999 and 2017 compared to mortality among a matched subset of the general US population, stratified by year of entry into care. The gap in 1-year mortality appears to close by the later years examined (panel A), but 5-year mortality remains elevated over the entire calendar period (panel C), suggesting that there may be factors that influence the effectiveness of care (e.g., treatment discontinuation, disengagement from care) and, therefore, increase mortality among those with HIV after the first year.
