The immune system upon reacting to EBV or a vaccine should theoretically eliminate EBV on contact so it won't stay in your body?

Are you implying that that a vaccine cannot eliminate EBV?

Additionally, a faulty immune response also means your immune system can't differentiate between EBV and your nerve cells. So theoretically speaking even if there's no EBV in your body having MS means that your body thinks EBV is in your body even if it's not. A vaccine in my mind could still induce this reaction.




I meant that it's unlikely that a EBV vaccine triggers the same response as EBV because EBV stays and the vaccine wouldn't.

Same with the Corona vaccines unlike this implies https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29942670
