From your perspective ('I'me in a corner') re EBV it looks convincing. But there is 'something missing' A very similar presentation can be made for HHV6, another Herpes virus that 'lives' latent and occasionally activating almost exclusively in immune cells. It is inevitable that when there is immune reactivity these viruses are dragged into the events, and appear to be implicated. But are they?......really? There is something else going on 'that is missing' and we must be open to suprises. There must be a case for a serious symposium to thrash out these questions and look for the missing pieces?

The evidence on the role of EBV in the pathogenesis of MS is overwhelming. Yet studies on antivirals (e.g. tenofovir) in MS are interrupted due to lack of funding. As a doctor I don't like conspiracy theories but I'm starting to be disappointed by the willful blindness of part of the pharmaceutical system
