## Abstract Human T‐lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV‐1) infection is associated with HTLV‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), which affects approximately 5% of carriers. High proviral load is a risk marker for HAM/TSP, although there is an overlap of proviral load levels in peri
