In the newly diagnosed HIV, say otherwise asymptomatic, normal CD4, etc, I know you're supposed to get genotypic viral resistance testing first to guide your ART.
But you really wait for this to come back before beginning treatment? Say it's a send out lab, takes 2 weeks to come back at your home institution.
Would you let that 25-yo walk out of your clinic with no ART? Or would you rather start something now, then tailor it later after the resistance testing results?
