Abstract
Latent viral infection may be responsible for some human diseases, such as congenital defects and cancer. Deduction from animal examples leads to the inference that such infection ma; be congenital, even hereditaty. Among the forces which could maintain latent viruses in a population is that of selective advantage of the infected host, a possible mechanism being interference against a virulent virus.
