Coinfection with Human T Lymphotropic Virus Type I and Human Immunodeficiency Virus

Absence of Human T - Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type I Coinfection in Human Immunodeficiency Virus - Infected

Concern for transmission of human T-ceII lymphotropic virus, type 1 (HTLV-1 ) infection to recipients of infected cellular blood products has prompted development of tests to eliminate blood units with HTLV-I antibodies. Most hemophilic men from the United States became infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) before HIV donor screening and before blood products were processed to inacti...

Is human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I more clever than human immunodeficiency virus type 1?

SIR—Casseb [1] hypothesizes that human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is “more clever” than human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). One of his reasons is that HTLV-I, unlike HIV-1, has “an exceptionally low capability for causing death in the host.” “Cleverness” is not a biological concept but rather an anthropomorphism. Casseb probably is referring to the biological success of ...
