Prevalence of Kaposi's sarcoma associated herpesvirus infection measured by antibodies to recombinant capsid protein and latent immunofluorescence antigen
Guy Simpson,Thomas F. Schulz,Denise Whitby,Pamela M. Cook,Chris Boshoff,Lucille Rainbow,Mark R Howard,Shou-Jiang Gao,Roy A. Bohenzky,Peter Simmonds,C. A. Lee,A de Ruiter,Angelos Hatzakis,Richard S. Tedder,Ian Weller,R A Weiss,Patrick S. Moore +16 more
TL;DR: The distribution of antibodies to both a capsid-related recombinant protein and latent antigen of KSHV strongly supports the view that infection with this virus is largely confined to individuals with, or at increased risk for, KS.

Risk factors for human herpesvirus 8 infection among adults in the United States and evidence for sexual transmission.
Eric A. Engels,Jonnae O. Atkinson,Barry I. Graubard,Geraldine M. McQuillan,Christine J. Gamache,Georgina Mbisa,Silvia Cohn,Denise Whitby,James J. Goedert +8 more
TL;DR: Among men, HHV-8 transmission may occur through sexual activity, particularly sex with other men, and no evidence was observed for heterosexual transmission to women.
Human Herpesvirus 8 Infection within Families in Rural Tanzania
Sam M. Mbulaiteye,Ruth M. Pfeiffer,Denise Whitby,Glen Brubaker,John F. Shao,Robert J. Biggar +5 more
TL;DR: The data are consistent with the occurrence of HHV-8 transmission within families, from mothers and other relatives to children via nonsexual routes and between spouses via sexual routes.
