Dr. Richard Horowitz 18 hrs · MS has been known to be associated with EBV for a long time. Although this study helps confirm a strong association (association and causation are different), what is being ignored is the potential multi-factorial illness of individuals with a demyelinating disease. Based on the 16 point MSIDS model, infections like borrelia, bartonella, heavy metals, environmental toxins, and Vit D deficiency as well as viruses can all be factors driving demyelination. The military may also have a much higher exposure rate to ticks and infections as well as environmental toxins based on their training and deployment. My last book, How Can I Get Better? discusses between pages 50 and 65 the multifactorial elements that should be considered in anyone with a demyelinating illness. The one cause/one disease model does not account for the complexity in each individual. http://outbreaknewstoday.com/epstein-barr-virus-may-be.../ Posted by Mountainsky (Member # 51857) on :
