New Understanding & Same Old.

I fully support Eric Topol's work & those experts who produce the materials from research he reports!

I observe though that although this work is increasing our understanding of longer term effects of pathogens this to promote mitigations.

But at this time that work stands beside well known & much experienced broad scale mortality causes we already know of.
Yet those indisputable causes are ignored!
Sad irony.

Reputable rumors going around the internet say Ghana has approved a vaccine for #malaria and Germany is working on one for the #EpsteinBarr virus. 💗

New research suggests MS may be caused by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).

Possibly in the future, we’ll be able to prevent MS, as inoculations against HPV are now protecting a generation from cervical cancer, or as shingles vaccines help those of us who were exposed to chicken pox as kids avoid shingles as we age.

For #doctors (and people in general) who claim not to understand #PostCovid or #LongCovid:

Have you not heard of #GlandularFever/ #Mononucleosis (caused by #EpsteinBarr #EBV)? Do you remember high school when whole classes were wiped out for months? Some students came back after a month. Some a few months. Some off and on because they pushed too hard. Some never came back to school. Some had it reactivate years later.

It was accepted that this happened. Doctors knew this happened and tried to manage it the best they could because we couldn’t contain the virus. Parents accepted it.

#PostViral syndromes aren’t new and it’s amazing how short your memory is. This was the 1990s not the 1890s I’m referring to. It was endemic at that point. It’s happening again except this virus is far worse and we had a chance to control it. You can also catch it over and over and cause more and more damage.

I'll be working on these for awhile (reading is tiring), but they're topically interrelated, with Osler's Web focusing on #MECFS history and The Long Haul on #longCOVID. #PostViralIllness is also discussed more broadly to an extent.

HERPES!!!!

What did you think of when I said that?

I bet it wasn't infectious mononucleosis! Yes, the #EpsteinBarr virus, classified as a herpesvirus, is the main known cause of #Mono!

The #virus that causes #mono, called #EpsteinBarr, has been linked to seven #autoimmune diseases: lupus, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, and type 1 diabetes. https://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/the-virus-that-causes-mono-linked-to-seven-autoimmune-diseases/
