4.0 out of 5 stars A good review.
Nicely written...this is 2008 edition, yet at several places, it uses out-dated terminology for microbes.

ME is a common and extremely disabling disease that has been known since the 1980s to be associated with retrovirus infection and b cell lymphomas. It deserves more thorough coverage.

There are four sentences devoted to ME (CFS). Two of them repeat that antivirals are ineffective. This is based on Stephen Straus' discredited study. Better studies at Stanford...

ME is a common and extremely disabling disease that has been known since the 1980s to be associated with retrovirus infection and b cell lymphomas. It deserves more thorough coverage.

There are four sentences devoted to ME (CFS). Two of them repeat that antivirals are ineffective. This is based on Stephen Straus' discredited study. Better studies at Stanford and by ME & infectious disease expert Dr. Lerner show significant reductions in morbidity with antivirals. Also states that chronic EBV infection is a serious multi-organ disease that may respond to antivirals. CEBV infection is really just a small subset of ME (CFS) that happened to be triggered by EBV rather than another infection so this is an artificial distinction.
