Representative oral human herpesvirus shedding patterns within families. Each panel depicts the oral shedding of one virus in a single household. The weekly viral load of (A) HSV, (B) EBV, (C) CMV, and (D) HHV-6 detected in oral swabs by qPCR is shown for each family member (mother, gray; children with primary infection, red; children with chronic infection, blue). Missing data points are not included as points on the graphs. Complete sets of plots for all the families participating in the study can be found in the Supplementary Figures S1–S4.
