AbstractApproximately 15% of the global human population is viremic with human pegivirus (HPgV), a +ssRNA virus in the Flaviviridae family. An unusual feature of HPgV is its ability to persistently infect individuals without causing overt disease or evoking robust immune responses, but this phenomenon is poorly understood due to a dearth of systems for studying HPgV.
