Herpesviruses are responsible for various disorders, including oral and genital herpes caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), chickenpox and shingles from varicella-zoster virus (VZV), and infectious mononucleosis due to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can lead to serious complications in immunocompromised individuals, while human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is associated with roseola in infants. Additionally, Kaposi's sarcoma is linked to human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems.
