"A remarkable 81% of CFS patients experienced subjective improvement of their symptoms after treatment with folinic acid"
Alot of technical jargon but i think it says that people with reactiveated EBV are responing to some new drug

Wow that pretty cool that 80% of people responded to that. It makes me feel better that at least they are doing some research on this

It depends on where you live. In many countries folinic acid is only available as a highly expensive cancer drug, but in the U.S. (and possibly elsewhere?) you can buy this folic acid derivative as an affordable supplement.

Folinic acid is not folic acid.
