There's probably so much immunology, neurology, genetics and oncology that we don't know yet. How come herpes is a gift that keeps on giving as opposed to measles? Once someone has measles and recovers, that's it, end of story. These herpes viruses just seem to hang around forever.

***Does Herpes Cause Brain Cancer?***
Worth exploring.
Was it in the ‘90s that the guy who linked most gastric ulcers to H. pylori was declared a nutcase?

Interesting ... I’ve been waiting to see some pre-emptive propaganda floated before the GIGANTIC cellphone/brain cancer suit is eventually, and inevitably, filed.
I’ll continue to closely follow other “THIS causes brain cancer! Look over here! Not at your cellphone!” stories with interest.

Was it in the ‘90s that the guy who linked most gastric ulcers to H. pylori was declared a nutcase? Yeah, right up till the patents for the various "acid reducing" drugs expired. Then no one cared if anti-biotics were developed for stomach ulcers.

The Truth about HSV-1 and HSV-2
This site seems to agree with what I have learned after a quick scan. They are up to 8 different members of the Herpes "family" of viruses.

Thanks.
That was the only one I could come up with (or the only one any I know, has).

Interesting. I was just checked for CMV a few weeks ago, and am still negative (despite having a CMV+ kidney installed a few weeks ago). I guess the Valcyte is working....
