Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a latent beta-herpesvirus with potential transfusion-transmissible relevance, particularly in immunocompromised recipients. Data on HHV-6 viremia among Sudanese blood donors are extremely limited. This study aimed to determine the molecular prevalence of HHV-6 DNA among blood donors in Kassala, Sudan. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Kassala Teaching...
