Some patients with acute HIV infection have common cold like symptoms, such as fever, lymphadenopathy, pharyngitis, rash, myalgia or arthralgia, diarrhea, headache, weight loss, etc., which last for an average of two weeks, and generally subside without special treatment. Of course, the emergence of these cases does not necessarily mean that they are infected with HIV, because other diseases can also have a similar situation.

There were no other clinical symptoms or signs except for a few patients with persistent systemic lymphadenopathy (PGL). PGL refers to the enlargement of at least two non adjacent lymph nodes outside the inguinal lymph nodes, with a diameter of more than 1 cm.
