From an evolutionary perspective why does this make sense?arrow_forward
- You have a discussion among friends about viruses that can cause latent and chronic infections in humans. The first friend says that an example for latent infections in humans are oral and genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus and that examples of viruses causing chronic infections are Hepatitis C and HIV.
