About this document

VZV Pathophysiology and Reactivation by umalijanlawrence is a document available to read on EtoBox.

VZV enters the body through the respiratory tract and replicates in regional lymphoid tissues, leading to primary and secondary viremia. The virus then establishes latency in sensory nerve ganglia and can reactivate, causing herpes zoster lesions in the corresponding dermatome. This process involves the transport of the virus through nerve endings and replication in the skin.
