[edit] Scope
Is this page supposed to be about all herpesviridae (100+ viruses) or just human herpesviruses (8 viruses)? It would make sense to expand the page to include all herpesviridae. Then a separate page can be created to list the herpes viruses that infect humans.

REPLY: I agree. I think that would be a good idea. Quarkey 13:07, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] HH6/HH7
According to the Roseola page these both cause roseola. Here we say HH7 causes similar symptoms. Which is correct? Rich Farmbrough 14:03, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
REPLY:
Both HHV6 as well as HHV7 can cause roseola. So the Roseola page is correct and this page should be edited. There are various articles published in scientific magazines who say this, but i don't think i can link to them because they are usually not "open acces". Quarkey 13:03, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
