Over 90 % of the U.S. population is infected with EBV (including me). EBV is the virus that causes "Mono".
No one has, as of yet, been able to determine whether our immune systems are compromised by a virus or other thing, bringing our immune systems down, so that then we are susceptible to contracting Lyme & other tick-born infections, or if the tick-born infections drag our immune systems so low that we contract these types of viruses. The old "Which came first, the chicken or the egg" situation.
