#CDC "pauses" testing for #rabies, other serious #InfectiousDisease
#Disease tracking is also "temporarily" halted for #mpox, other common #viruses, eg #EpsteinBarr & #VaricellaZoster (the virus that causes #Chickenpox & #HerpesZoster).
This virus infects most of us – but why do only some get very ill?
The ubiquitous Epstein-Barr virus is increasingly being linked to conditions like multiple sclerosis and lupus.
But why do only some people who catch it develop these complications? The answer may lie in our genetics.

紅斑性狼瘡「100%病因」找到了?元兇竟是95%人類都有的「EB病毒」
julia 2025-11-18 11:30:00 CST新研究指出,EB病毒可能是紅斑性狼瘡的誘因。該病毒感染並重編B細胞,使其產生攻擊自身組織的抗體,引發自體免疫反應。此發現為開發疫苗或標靶B細胞等新療法奠定基礎。This kinda sucks.
Stanford Medicine scientists tie lupus to a virus nearly all of us carry
"For unknown reasons, nine out of 10 lupus patients are women."

Harsh but true: not striving to protect against viral infections is probabilistic murder.
