Set-point viral load and relative per parasite pathogenicity of T/F strains in HET and MSM.

SPVLb'*', early CD4 cell counts, the corresponding RT/F in infected adults at seroconversion (from the CASCADE study [41]) or diagnosis (from the Europe study [19]). For the CASCADE data, the mean and SD were calculated from the median and 95% CIs (see Methods) obtained by digitizing using WebPlotDigitizer. The 95% CIs provided here are following the normal approximation. Information for the European study is in Table 1.
