Virus that 'makes humans more stupid' discovered

http://www.independe...ed-9849920.html

 

Thought that this could interresting.

I work with a few people that must have a debilitating case of this virus. According to my dad, there is no cure for the stupid virus. 

So how do we kill it?

So how do we kill it?

 

As pro-v pointed out, it's incurable. The only solution is to quarantine everyone infected with the stupid virus.

 

Since we cannot kill it, preventative measures are a must; wash your hands and stay away from people exhibiting signs of stupidity.

No surprise here...

Friends, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there are quite a few viruses already known to make you stupid; here's the original study. Personally, my cognition was never quite the same after EBV infection at age 19 (a herpesvirus).

 

I am quite glad, however, to be the bearer of good news; a potent and safe new antiviral may be able to suppress or even eradicate herpesviruses over time. (Can't find the source for elimination; it was estimated to take 7 years, IIRC).

 

I am very seriously hoping to get a CMX001 group buy going by the end of the year. But of course, it's not some sexy BDNF-supercharging peptide, so no one will be interested, LOL.

And this is the reason why I´ve posted this.

Instead of thinking everytime about the same hype-diseases like ADHD or whatever,

it could be considerable to look into this like for toxoplasmosis, Herpes & etc.

I'd totally be interested when or if you decide to put one up.

But how safe is it? In my understanding and limited experience, antivirals is not something one would take long term for no good reason. Often they lead to mitochondrial toxicity. 

 

I looked into clinicaltrials.gov for CMX001 (Brincidofovir) and interesting that in this phase 3 study for  adenovirus the dosage is twice a week for 12 weeks.

 

Suppose you get the stuff. What would be your dosage and for how long would you be taking it?

 

 

PS

Interesting, they want to test it on ebola, "administered as initial dose of 200mg then 100mg BIW for a total of 5 doses."

This wont work for the algae virus I don't think but do look into disrupting the lipid layer on lipid coated virii like HSV etc with Lauric etc. acids and BHT.

Here on some other interesting threads mentioning bavituximab et al:
