@SilverGorilla2 🙏
I am not a scientist, I've read that the envelope protein of the #HERV-W #Retrovirus might be an aggravating factor in #MS and that it would also play a role in inflammatory #psychosis, as well as in min. 25% of #longcovid. All this has been published. Forseps.org has been following this trail for 10 years. A P2 trial with #temelimab targeting this protein is recruiting in 🇨🇭 Switzerland. The P2 in #MS had positive results, presented at #ECTRIMS2022#mschat -
👉An interesting paper :
"HERV-W ENV antigenemia and correlation of increased anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin levels with post-COVID-19 symptoms."
" (...) The present study shows, for the first time, that the HERV-W ENV protein can still be actively expressed long after SARS-CoV-2 infection is resolved in post-COVID-19 condition patients.(...)"
There's a P2 clinical trial enrolling:
