Another virus in the news

A recent study reveals that in certain individuals, human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) can insert itself into human chromosomes.

The study could have interesting implications for ME/CFS, as many people with this disease have high titers of HHV-6. Too early to tell, but something to keep an eye on.
