Is it possible that adenovirus 14 pose a cancer threat or establish latency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: This aggressive new adenovirus may turn out to hang on in tonsil lymphocytes like some of the others, but i doubt it will turn out to be any more of a cancer-causer than its most familiar kin. Despite "pop" wisdom, viral pathogenesis doesn't seem to be a factor in most of the common cancers apart from hpv causing cervix cancer.
