The T cell response to Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus is critical to controlling infection and immunopathology but has been poorly explored in immunocompetent patients. Here the authors characterise the T cell response to the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus proteome in immunocompetent patients from rural Uganda.
