Thailand has experienced a major epidemic of HIV/AIDS since 1988. Currently over 650,000 persons are HIVinfected and 400,000 have died of AIDS in Thailand. However, Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) is very rare. Among the 101,945 adults AIDS cases reported between 1994 and 1998 only 0.2% had KS. We have ruled out the possibility that HHV-8 infections are rare; in

Herpes simplex virus triggers and then disarms a host antiviral response [PDF]

, 2001
Virus infection induces an antiviral response that is predominantly associated with the synthesis and secretion of soluble interferon. Here, we report that herpes simplex virus type 1 virions induce an interferon-independent antiviral state in human ...
