One virus enters
a susceptible cell and produces 100-3000 progeny overnight. Replication in vitro results in a cytopathic effect which spreads until all the cells in the vessel are dead. Replication in-vivo results in necrotic lesions whose location depend on virus tropism. Lesions are then limited by nonspecifc immunity eg interferon. |
