Zoonotic diseases
From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history
Zoonotic diseases are infectious diseases that can be transmitted between humans and animals.[1]
Veteranian Walter Tarello, who has investigated illnesses that resemble chronic fatigue syndrome in animals, has hypothesized ME/CFS may have zoonotic components as he and his wife, who work together, were both diagnosed with CFS.[2]
Notable studies[edit | edit source]
- 1996, Possible correlation between Borna disease virus infection and Japanese patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.[3]
- 1999, Borna Disease Virus Proteins in Patients with CFS[4]
- 2001, Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) associated with Staphylococcus spp. bacteremia, responsive to potassium arsenite 0.5% in a veterinary surgeon and his coworking wife, handling with CFS animal cases.[2]
