I don’t know of any pwHIV who developed ME post-HIV. I vaguely remember Dr. Chia mentioning that of the thousands of ME patients he had seen,...
The good news is that both factors contributing to HIV-associated Neurocognitive Disorder (HAND) can be mitigated by a careful choice of...
The CDC has now conceded that Enterovirus D68 can cause Acute Flaccid Paralysis. Although the concession of causality is within the context of a...
There are exosomes that carry up to 40 enteroviruses in a single vesicle. More info:...
MEpedia is currently implementing much-needed improvements that will require intermittent downtime to install upgrades. These intermittent...
Just to clarify, the problem is not with MEpedia, it is with the ISP. All MEpedia can do is wait for the ISP to fix the problem.
And now NIAID has weighed in, with a somewhat more urgent outlook than the CDC’s: https://mbio.asm.org/content/10/2/e00521-19 Ten years ago...

It’s so good to see Stevens, Van Ness, and Snell pair up with someone like Charles Chiu. At first glance, the study design seems excellent. They...
This is not exactly what you’re talking about, but it is possible for a viral quasispecies to move from one cell to another. In the case of...
Very interesting, thanks for sharing. There is a related phenomenon, researched by Raul Andino, of ”viral quasi-species”. In this scenario you...
For the record, this is not a generally accepted assumption in the field of virology. In fact, there are numerous examples of persistent viral...
