viremia
Pathogens circulating systemically
Viremia is the presence of viruses in the bloodstream.
The term appears in medical contexts describing how infections spread through the body: The patient developed viremia within days of exposure.
A viremic phase often precedes symptoms, as the virus circulates before settling into target organs.
