A father brings his five-year-old daughter into the clinic because he is concerned that she has broken out with multiple bumps on her forehead. On exam, you see several raised nodules with central dimples (umbilicated appearance) on her forehead and scattered on her cheeks. They are painless, nonerythematous, and nonpruritic. There are no systemic complaints. You suspect infection with Molluscum contagiosum. To which group of viruses does it belong?
A Adenoviruses
B Herpes viruses
C Papova viruses
D Paramyxoviruses
