Virology Lectures 2023 #17: Persistent infections

A persistent infection lasts the lifetime of the host, and humans have many of them. In this lecture we discuss the mechanisms and consequences of viral persistence, illustrated with examples of measles virus, polyomaviruses, hepatitis B and C viruses, and herpesviruses.

As usual, very informative lecture. Thanks, Prof. I've been listening to you since 2011 when I was a postgraduate Virology student. You're still the best. ❤

Excellent presentation. It seems doctors do not investigate these viruses enough.

Does HHV-6/HHV-7 show a possible mechanism to elongate temoleres?

I was able to get rid of HSV1/2 after a long time of pain. I would love to express my gratitude to Dr Obaz on RUclips for his positive contribution. Being recommended to him was the best decision of my life. Keep doing good sir•••

Thank you from a physician who was much in need of an update in virology.
