СHROMOSOMALLY INTEGRATED HUMAN HERPESVIRUS 6
The review focuses on the problem of chromosomally integrated human herpesvirus 6 (CIHHV-6). The main features of CIHHV-6 are wide prevalence (near 1% of population), ability to inheritance, which leads to problems of diagnostics of acute HHV-6 infection.
