It absolutely does. Anyone who denies this should get mono and then have their life ruined by CFS. You would become a believer fast. It is highly insulting to hear from people (especially supposed professionals) who don’t believe the true suffering of people with this condition. The truth needs to come out sooner than later. We need answers and cures and money to fund them. Please go to Solve ME/CFS and donate now.

Hi, Christiania: I have a good infectious disease specialist, and he says newer research shows that EBV doesn't cause CFS. I was surprised to hear that, but apparently that's the current scientific thinking.
