HIV infection in France has become a chronic disease and treatment has allowed patients to increase their life expectancy. However, these promising results suffer from a very large variability within the socio-epidemiological subgroups, and life expectancy at 20 years of age is still one third lower than in the general population. Few studies of metropolitan cohorts investigated precariousness as an independent risk factor for mortality. The investigators chose to consider the vulnerability of people living with HIV (PLWHA) through the measurement of a validated French quantitative score, called EPICES (Evaluation of precariousness and health inequalities in health examination centers). Using a self-administered questionnaire administered during an annual follow-up visit to an infectious disease specialist, the investigators seek to define in the alpine arc region in france, socio-demographic data associated with greater precariousness among PLWHA.
