#LongCOVID #MECFS:
Saliva antibody-fingerprint of reactivated latent viruses after mild/asx COVID is unique in patients w/MECFS https://buff.ly/3I10umf

Mild SARS-CoV-2 can trigger reactivation of #EBV, #HHV6, and #HERV-K, seen by antibody fingerprints locally in #saliva but not detected in blood samples.

Still an important article in 2022 :

I've just learnt that a participant of the #temelimab's phase 2 Post-Covid clinical study in Geneva 🇨🇭(#HUG, @Hopitaux_unige) is positive to the #HERV-W envelope proteine and will take part to this study. Fingers crossed for him🙏 and the others pple suffering of #LongCovid with #Hope they will do better and that a #cure will be found, as other trials are running. #LongCovid is not one but many different diseases with different symptoms (more than 200). 🕯️
