Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been frequently documented in the putative neoplastic Hodgkin-Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells, in lymph nodes from patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD). This association varies in different geographic areas and between industrialized and developing countries, as does the epid
