Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for your query.

Individuals with immunosuppression and HIV infection (regardless of CD4 count) should be given Rabipur. Rabipur is life saving in AIDS patients when the CD4 counts are low and sero conversion is compromised.

If you have any more queries, feel free to ask.

Regards
