[edit] Rename?

Seeing as it's official name is Human Herpesvirus 8, and as it doesn't just cause KS, but also Castleman's and PEL, shouldn't we rename this article Human Herpesvirus 8 and have KSHV redirect to it rather than the other way around? FelixFelix ^talk 16:58, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

• This got left a long time ago, but I agree that the page should be renamed. If there aren't any objections, I'll do the move. Calindigo (talk) 13:44, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Epidemiology?

Is there any data on the prevalence of KS in immunocompetent HHV-8 infected individuals?74.79.161.1 17:15, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
