Another herpes virus (CMV) has been found in the brains of 93% of people with Vascular Dementia

These herpes viruses cause a wide range of problems.

The article mentioned in this link dates from 2002  -  2002, for God's sake.  Any progress since?

You may wonder why this fact is not more widely known and why there has not been much research into the relationship between CMV and VD.

There is great hostility to this kind of research.  This may be because research tends to be funded by 'big pharma'.  Why would they be interested in a treatment that involved a cheap and widely available anti-viral drug?
