        @ganya Not uncommonly, successfully treated patients will demonstrate intermittent viremia, with viral loads transiently detectable at low levels (typically, < 400 copies/mL); this appears to occur more commonly with some viral load assays than others. Such “blips” are not thought to represent viral replication or to predict virologic failure. Virologic failure is defined as a confirmed viral load of more than 200 copies/mL; although this is a research definition, it may be useful in clinical practice.
