Southern Medical Journal, 1993
Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a relatively recently discovered virus. Although systematic studies on the spread of this virus are lacking, considerable data have been collected regarding the prevalence of HHV-6 infection. A number of laboratory methods are available for the diagnosis of HHV-6 infection, but currently these tests are usually available ...
