Scientists discovered the source of multiple sclerosis to be the mononucleosis family of viruses.
Do you have a source for that? As I have close friends affected by MS I'd be really interested in reading a paper about it and sharing it with them.
From my initial searches I can't seem to find anything else than this being a proposed theory among others.
Edit: I've found this article https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-research-matters/study-suggests-epstein-barr-virus-may-cause-multiple-sclerosis suggesting it's at least one of the factor but not the source of it.
I found this one but it's locked behind a Paywall so I can't tell you the full story. I did however find that it's linked to or referenced by 35 other sites, most of which are reputable science sites

Edit: another that is talking about the next stages of research now they discovered this
Thanks, that's really interesting. I'll try to find the opened paper somewhere else, but the abstract already gives a lot of interesting informations :)
sci-hub should help get you that paper
Yep that's what I was alluding to :). Unfortunately the first DOI did not return a result. I'll probably email the contact author. They usually are quite willing to send the PDF.
Is there a non youtube source? It's not in the description.
This seems so out of left field that I wouldn’t have believed it save for me actually looking it up myself
I mean that does prove it fits the OP well, doesn't it?
Going to need you to actually link a source for that because I don't know if your bullshitting or not
This is not new. My mother was diagnosed with MS over a decade ago and this was a theory then. I also have an auto immune disease and it has been linked to mine and pretty much every one of them including long COVID. As far as I know I've never had it.
