Abstract
THE herpes-like virus (HLV), first detected1 in lymphoid cell cultures derived from Burkitt's lymphoma tissue, has been suggested as the causative agent of diseases such as Burkitt's lymphoma itself2, infectious mononucleosis3,4, carcinoma of the posterior nasal space5 and sarcoidosis6. It appears that between 70% and 85% of normal adults have antibodies against HLV7,8 suggesting that the agent is widespread, but it is also clear that the pathogenic nature of the virus is uncertain9.
