The @who.int cancer agency just added cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and hepatitis D virus (HDV) to the growing list of viruses officially linked to cancer. That brings the number of known cancer-associated viruses to 10.

It is with a broken heart that I share we lost our daughter & baby sister, Lincoln Iris Matishak, on May 30 at thirty weeks & delivered her shortly thereafter.
She died from congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV), a common but overlooked virus.
She will be loved always & forever.

Unfortunately, not surprising. Preventing herpesvirus *infections* is a very high bar in general, and cytomegalovirus immunity is particularly complicated even relative to other herpesviruses. That said, I do think mRNA approaches could be advantageous for other herpesviruses.
