Abstract
Whole viruses, also called virions, comprise either RNA or DNA surrounded by a protein coat. Those that persist in sanctuary sites can continue gradually infecting the cells around them. There they hijack the host cell(s) to make copies of themselves. RNA viruses such as hepatitis C virus5 and HIV6 can evade immune control and can continuously produce infectious virions throughout a patient’s life.
