Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Herpesviruses are known for causing latent infections, where the viral genome can remain in a latent state within the host cell for extended periods of time without causing any symptoms. This ability to remain in a latent state allows herpesviruses to persist within their host and reactivate at a later time when conditions are favorable for replication. Adenoviruses, poxviruses, and parvoviruses do not typically cause latent infections.
