ABSTRACT Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a neurotropic, double‐stranded DNA virus from the Herpesviridae family. It has a large genome, infects the majority of populations, and typically causes asymptomatic infections in healthy individuals. After the initial infection with established lifelong latency, HCMV can reactivate and cause disorders including
