Viral septicemia, also referred to as systemic viral infection or viremia, occurs when viruses spread through the bloodstream, leading to multi-organ involvement and severe disease. Such infections can trigger overwhelming immune activation, cytokine storms, and high mortality, as seen in emerging pathogens like SARS-CoV-2 or severe influenza strains. Despite the clinical importance, treatment options remain limited, and there is an urgent need for effective antivirals, immunotherapies, and vaccines.
