“…An individual infected with both group M and group O HIV-1 viruses was identified (71), although it is not known whether the infections were nearly simultaneous or sequential. Indirect evidence for infections with more then one subtype of HIV-1 group M viruses is seen in the large number of distinct intersubtype recombinants, each with a presumably independent origin (8,12,24,25,36,46,56,66,73,74,76), and in numerous cases of dual-subtype infections (4,6,(24)(25)(26)62). It is not known with what time intervals such dual infections are acquired.…”
