Multiple-Strain Infections of Human Cytomegalovirus with High Genomic Diversity are Common In Breast Milk from HIV-Positive Women in Zambia

2018-12-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> In developed countries, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a major pathogen in congenitally infected and immunocompromised individuals, in whom multiple-strain infection is linked to disease severity. The situation is less documente in developing countries. In Zambia, breast milk is a key route for transmitting HCMV and carries higher viral loads in HIV-positive women. We inves...
