Herpes simplex virus genomes from an under-sampled population in Namibia reveal novel genetic diversity

2026-02-19

Abstract excerpt

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is an endemic pathogen, infecting most adults world-wide. HSV infection can cause a wide spectrum of disease outcomes, ranging from asymptomatic infection or mild lesions to rare cases of infectious keratitis, encephalitis, and death. HSV genome sequences have been shown to differ between individual patients, as well as within individuals. To date, the vast majority of publicly available...
