“…Therefore, the significant percentages of elective and urgent c-sections found in this study point out at a possibly inadequate prenatal follow up, in which the adherence to the ARVT by the pregnant women was impaired, which is the main reason why there would be no viral suppression at the time of birth (4,(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37) .…”
