Hepatitis B viral load is the amount of hepatitis B virus (HBV) found in a person’s bloodstream. Hepatitis B is a viral infection that can pass from person to person through bodily fluids. It ...

Researchers have identified a positive correlation between viral load and the rate at which genetic diversity increases within intrahost HIV populations. HIV has been historically difficult to treat ...

In a recent study published in Molecular Biology and Evolution, researchers investigated whether denser intrahost human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) populations had a higher incidence of coinfection ...

A new paper in Molecular Biology and Evolution, published by Oxford University Press, finds that HIV populations in people with higher viral loads also have higher rates of viral recombination. In ...
