Peter G. Medveczky, MD, is a Professor in the Department of Molecular Medicine, College of Medicine Molecular Medicine, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida. He studies human herpesvirus 6 and its connection to illness, including chronic fatigue syndrome.
Open Letter to The Lancet[edit | edit source]
