HUMAN HERPESVIRUS 6

Human Herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) is neither vector-borne nor a zoonotic agent. It is transmitted human-to-human. Often the case is that one of the local reference facilities requests a product they are having trouble obtaining. Such is the case with HHV-6 IFA slides and it turns out they are fun to work with. There is also quite a lot of research going on with the pathology of HHV-6, expanding the list of associated diseases.
