The Long Story Short with Dr. Been
Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) Serology
Dr. Been reviews the serology of the Epstein Barr Virus (EBV). EBV causes Infectious Mononucleosis. This disease is usually benign and self limiting. However, in some cases it can become chronic, or reactivating. EBV can also cause cancers and other serious complications.
Original video from Dr. Been posted in August 2021

High level overview of the serology
States of a person:
Susceptible to EBV (never had it before.)
No antibodies
Acute infection
VCA IgM
Acute infection late acute
VCA-IgM and increasing VCA-IgG
Past infection
VCA-IgG and EBNA-1 IgG
Reactivation of the EBV
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3782265/High EA (D) IgG
Increasing VCA-IgG
Decreasing EBNA-1 IgG
Even VCA-IgM may reappear during the reactivation
Immunosuppressed may have
Only EBVCA IgG without EBVCA IgM or EBNA-1
In 1.7% of the infected patients may only show EBNA-1 without EBVCA-IgG (this pattern is usually thought to be implausible.)
