Description The All Ireland Infectious Diseases (AIID) Cohort study was initially established at a single hospital site (Mater Misericordiae University Hospital) in 2013. It has since expanded to five hospital sites across Ireland. The aim of the cohort is to create a data-rich prospective dataset derived from patients who present with suspected Infectious Diseases focusing on HIV and Hepatitis and now includes SARS-CoV-2. Patients willing to participate after an informed consent process have their routine clinical data collected, and extra blood samples taken for bio banking.
