Apparent cooperativity between human CMV virions introduces errors in conventional methods of calculating multiplicity of infection

Whether infection of cells by individual virions occurs randomly or if there is some form (s) of competition or cooperativity between individual virions remains largely unknown for most virus-cell ...
