Long COVID affects more people than scientists thought!
Why is that all new variants of COVID got easier but Long COVID continues to affect people? The truth is - we don't know. There are many scientific groups around the world who are trying to figure that out. Guess what - if we still don't know where the virus came from ... how can we than know what it does to our body!?
Why More and More People Talking about EBV?
Indeed, I was very surprised to see very high titers of EBV IgG in almost every patient whom I diagnosed with Long COVID. You will ask why I was even looking for them? Indeed, this is a part of my routine screening for people with unexplained chronic conditions and severe fatigue. In fact, we know well that EBV or Mononucleosis (also known as "kissing disease") is responsive for prolonged and sometimes debilitating fatigue. And, looking deeper, I started comparing more and more symptoms that Mono can inflict in adults. And I got an interesting analogy. Maybe, I thought, the SARS or COVID virus indeed contains splices (parts) of corona and splice of EBV virus? To this day we have no idea where the virus came from. But many, including me, think that this virus was generated in the lab and was designed to be a killer virus.
We will Know How to Treat Long COVID when we know why EBV is involved
While no one knows how to treat Long and annoying COVID, we could come up with new regimens. In our clinic we already adopted the protocol we used for Chronic Fatigue Reboot and achieved amazing results! At least half of our patients recover, and another 1/4 feel much better. We are working on adjusting our techniques and treatments to become even more successful.
