Fred Brooker on Nostr: The shock triggered by COVID may “wake up” latent viruses lurking in your body. ...
The shock triggered by COVID may “wake up” latent viruses lurking in your body. We all carry anywhere from eight to 12 of these undetected bugs at a time—things like Epstein-Barr, varicella-zoster (which causes chickenpox and shingles), and herpes simplex. And research suggests their reactivation could be a contributing factor in long COVID. Separately, the systemic inflammation often created by COVID may spark the onset of high blood pressure and increased clotting, as well as type 2 diabetes.
