I've just come across this article that quotes what it seems recent research...
"According to a study published in the Indian Journal of Pediatrics, Seropositive status for Borrelia burgdorferi (B. burgdorferi) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was identified in 66% of the patients with the diagnosis of CFS by CDC criteria. The study is entitled, Factors Affecting Duration of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in Pediatric Patients".

Ignore the second part of the article, plain infomercial...
This is news to me. 66% seems an awful lot!
Can somebody pls help here and summarise what the latest evidence is with regard to a possible link XMRV and CFS. I went through the XMRV section but I can't make sense of various posts in terms of where we are now...feeling quite foggy today...
Also, does this mean that the EBV connection is going to be reappraised?
Thanks
