Human Herpesviruses are a group of eight viruses that can cause infections in humans. These viruses are known for their ability to remain dormant in the body after the initial infection, leading to potential reactivation later. The most common types include Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV-1), which often causes oral herpes, and Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV-2), typically associated with genital herpes. Other members of this group include Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV), responsible for chickenpox and shingles, and Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), linked to infectious mononucleosis. The remaining viruses, such as Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), can cause various health issues, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems.
