The version described here is the first version. The raw reads were deposited in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) under the accession number PRJNA913943 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/SRX18774967 and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/SRX18774968).We report the coding-complete genome sequence of human alphaherpesvirus 1 (HHV1) isolated from a previously healthy 64-year-old male with fulminant hepatitis, a rare presentation of a common viral agent. The sequence is highly similar to previously described HHV1 sequences. Additional sequence data for fulminant hepatitis cases are required.en© 2023 Viljoen et al.
