Why is the media ignoring the relationship of HHV-6 to Parkinson's?

HHV-6 University Editorial

Michael Kinsley is on the talk show circuit discussing his new book and his Parkinson's. He's still one of the brightest people in the country, so it is quite surprising that he has never spoken publicly (as far as we know) about the possibility that a lot of Parkinson's is a byproduct of the HHV-6 pandemic. We previously expressed our concern that Lesley Stahl has also ignored the HHV-6 crisis.

Human herpesvirus-6 entry into the central nervous system through the olfactory pathway

 "Viruses have been implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s, and multiple sclerosis. Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) is a neurotropic virus that has been associated with a wide variety of neurologic disorders, including encephalitis, mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, and multiple sclerosis. Currently, the route of HHV-6 entry into the CNS is unknown. Using autopsy specimens, we found that the frequency of HHV-6 DNA in the olfactory bulb/tract region was among the highest in the brain regions examined. Given this finding, we investigated whether HHV-6 may infect the CNS via the olfactory pathway. HHV-6 DNA was detected in a total of 52 of 126 (41.3%) nasal mucous samples, showing the nasal cavity is a reservoir for HHV-6. Furthermore, specialized olfactory-ensheathing glial cells located in the nasal cavity were demonstrated to support HHV-6 replication in vitro. Collectively, these results support HHV-6 utilization of the olfactory pathway as a route of entry into the CNS."
