  abstract = {{V}iruses are the most abundant obligate intracellular entities in our body. {U}ntil recently, they were only considered to be pathogens that caused a broad array of pathologies, ranging from mild disease to deaths in the most severe cases. {H}owever, recent advances in unbiased mass sequencing techniques as well as increasing epidemiological evidence have indicated that the human body is home to diverse viral species under non-pathological conditions. {D}espite these studies, the description of the presumably healthy viral flora, i.e. the normal human virome, is still in its infancy regarding viral composition and dynamics. {T}his review summarizes our current knowledge of the human virome under non-pathological conditions.},
