Electron micrograph of one of the HHV6 species

One of the best discussions of HHV-6 online.

David Overton on HHV-6:

I started testing and treating HHV 6 because it can cause circulation problems and heart disease. I next found it can be part of acne, especially adult acne or rosacea. It is also a treatable cause of autoimmune problems, such as colitis, thyroid problems, rheumatology problems, multiple sclerosis (80% of cases) and other autoimmune conditions. I was surprised to see many neurological or nervous system problems improve with treatment for many of the herpes infections. Headaches, anxiety, mood changes, attention problems, memory problems, numbness, tingling, neuropathies, twitches and other problems often improved. This is because the herpes infections infect the nervous system.
HHV 6 grows inside white blood cells (lymphocytes, B cells, T cells, monocytes) and nerve cells and thus may not show on standard tests. Clues for this infection include abnormal:
• white blood cells
• abnormal red cells
• abnormal platelets
• abnormal urine tests
• abnormal liver or kidney tests
• abnormal circulation tests, including high cholesterol or CRP (C reactive protein)

Rare inflammatory syndrome seen in US child with Covid-19 https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/health-news/rare-inflammatory-syndrome-seen-in-us-child-with-covid-19/ar-BB13lKks?ocid=spartanntp HHV-6 and Kawasaki Disease Abstract Eighteen of a total of 22 serum specimens (81.8%) from patients with Kawasaki disease were positive for immunoglobulin G or M antibodies to human herpesvirus 6, whereas 10 of 16 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (62.5%) were seropositive. Additionally, increased geometric mean antibody titers of immunoglobulin G were shown in these patients. These results suggest that the status of human herpesvirus 6 infection may be a reflection of the immunologic alterations that are associated with Kawasaki disease. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC267029/ COVID-19 and African Swine ... by rubiconmedia on Scribd

  Make the case that HHV-6 may be responsible for the fertility problems in men Make the case that HHV-6 may be responsible for the fertility problems in men There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) may play a role in male fertility problems. Here is the case based on recent research findings: Prevalence in Semen and Sperm Binding:  Studies have identified HHV-6A/B in approximately 13.5% of semen samples from healthy sperm donors, a prevalence higher than that of most other herpesviruses in semen. Importantly, HHV-6B has been shown to specifically bind to the acrosome—the cap-like structure on the head of sperm. This means that the virus can directly interact with sperm cells and potentially travel with them into the female reproductive tract. Potential Mechanisms of Fertility Impairment:  The binding of HHV-6 to the sperm acrosome suggests the existence of a receptor for the virus on sperm, raising the possibility that this interact...

Salivary DNA Loads for Human Herpesviruses 6 and 7 Are Correlated With Disease Phenotype in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

-
 " Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a complex chronic condition affecting multiple body systems, with unknown cause, unclear pathogenesis mechanisms, and fluctuating symptoms which may lead to severe debilitation. It is frequently reported to have been triggered by an infection, but there are no clear differences in exposure to, or seroprevalence of, any particular viruses between people with ME/CFS and healthy individuals. However, herpes viruses have been repeatedly hypothesized to underlie the chronic relapsing/remitting form of MS/CFS due to their persistence in a latent form with periodic reactivation. It is possible that ME/CFS is associated with herpes virus reactivation, which has not been detectable previously due to insufficiently sensitive testing methods. Saliva samples were collected from 30 people living with ME/CFS at monthly intervals for 6 months and at times when they experienced symptom exacerbation, as well as from 14 healthy contr...

Perplexity on K.S. and AIDS and inflammation

-
  Discuss the issue of K.S. happening despite ART use Kaposi sarcoma (KS) can and does occur in people living with HIV, even when they are on effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). While ART has dramatically reduced the incidence and severity of KS, several important points explain why KS still happens despite ART use: Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS): Some individuals develop KS or see it worsen shortly after starting ART, in what is known as KS-IRIS. This is thought to be due to immune system recovery leading to a paradoxical inflammatory response, which can unmask or exacerbate KS—even when HIV viral load drops and CD4 counts begin to rise. Rapidly disseminated or aggressive KS has been reported in these cases, sometimes within months of starting ART. Persistent Risk Despite Good Immune Recovery: Studies have documented cases of KS in patients who maintain undetectable HIV viral loads and normal CD4 counts for years. This includes long-term HIV survivors and o...

Anna Fogdell Hahn, researcher at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden. MS linked to variant of HHV-6 (the CFS/AIDS virus) through new method Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a new method to separate between two different types of a common herpes virus (HHV-6) that has been linked to multiple sclerosis. By analyzing antibodies in the blood against the most divergent proteins of herpesvirus 6A and 6B, the researchers were able to show that MS-patients carry the herpesvirus 6A to a greater extent than healthy individuals. The findings, published in Frontiers in Immunology, point to a role for HHV-6A in the development of MS.  Multiple sclerosis, MS, is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. The cause of the disease is unclear, but one plausible explanation is a virus tricks the immune system to attack the body's own tissue. Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) has previously been associated with MS, b...

Ablashi discusses HHV-6, AIDS, Alzheimer's, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

"HHV-6 is actually likely to reduce HIV patient survival by accelerating the depletion of CD4 and CD8 T cells. HHV-6A was shown to accelerate AIDS progression in macaques.  Macaques co-infected with simian HIV and HHV-6A died quickly and showed a dramatic depletion in both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, whereas those infected with only simian HIV never progressed to full blown AIDS."  "We believe that infections are the most logical explanation for the inflammation neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer’s , but don’t believe that there is a single pathogen responsible. HHV-6A and HHV-7 were identified as likely culprits in 2018 paper , using RNAseq analysis by Readhead and team. Two subsequent studies did not find an increase in HHV-6/7 using the same data, but at the same time did not find a significant presence of ANY herpesviruses in the brain, which we know is not the case.

Why HIV should be referred to as "a red herring."

-
 From Perplexity A.I. Make the case that the critics of the HIV theory of AIDS would be more effective at their messaging to politicians and the public by constantly referring to HIV as a red herring. Critics of the HIV theory of AIDS—those who argue that HIV is not the causative agent of AIDS—often struggle to convey their message effectively to politicians and the public because the scientific consensus firmly upholds the link between HIV and AIDS. However, from a communications strategy perspective, such critics might amplify the clarity and urgency of their argument by consistently describing HIV as a "red herring." Here’s why this tactic could make their messaging more effective: 1. Framing the Narrative Labeling HIV as a "red herring" frames the dominant scientific focus on the virus as a distraction from finding the true cause of AIDS (as the critics would argue). This concise phrase presents the debate in terms of misdirection, which is an accessible and com...
