The reactivation of Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus (KSHV) by SARS-CoV-2 in non-hospitalised HIV-infected patients by Lambarey, Humaira

“…As lytic reactivation of KSHV may have long-term consequences, particularly in the context of patients with impaired immune functions, identifying and monitoring patients at risk for KSHV reactivation, prevention of KSHV-associated pathologies and appropriate treatment strategies are therefore important in the post-pandemic era.…”
