The links between Epstein-Barr virus infection and later multiple sclerosis are getting stronger: www.science.org/content/blog...
Do you know of any other auto-immune diseases with similar pathways?
What's frustrating about the research is it leads everyone towards "let's prevent eostain-barr" and not "let's find a way to disrupt the shit-cascade;" the latter would help not only with current cases of MS but likely other similar autoimmune diseases who happen to get triggered by some other virus
