Childhood Illness
Childhood Illness
 Although no specific viral triggers have yet been isolated it suspected that infection with one or more childhood illnesses (e.g. Epstein-Barr, (Glandular Fever)[Human Herpes Virus 6, HHV-6) could be involved in the development of MS in later life. There have been a number of studies undertaken into a possible link between Epstein-Barr Virus and MS. © Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre (MSRC)
