Varicella-zoster virus reactivation during acute enterovirus infection is associated with CD8 lymphocytopenia.

John K Chia1, Andrew A Chia.   

Abstract

The trigger or triggers for reactivation of varicella-zoster virus have not been well defined in the medical literature. We investigated the role of enterovirus infections in triggering herpes zoster in five patients and correlated the reactivation with transient CD8 T lymphocyte depletion during the acute enterovirus infection.
