I don't think this is getting the attention it deserves. Think of Lupus and MS as to be the equivalent of long COVID. Instead of discounting long COVID, people should really be focussing on it.

From the recent studies it seems that in cases of mononucleosis (EB virus), in certain people it sets up a cascading immune response that either degrades the myelin sheaths on the nervous system or has a more generalized autoimmune response that can cause kidney failure, liver disease etc (Lupus). Then you think of the recent studies that show that vaccinations against Shingles (Herpes varicella-zoster) has a significant (decrease) impact in certain forms of dementia.

Long and short .... get your vaccines people.
