“Our results clearly show that there is a link between infections of herpes simplex virus and the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease,” said Lövheim, an associate professor at the Department of Community Medicine and Rehabilitation, Geriatric Medicine, at Umeå, in a statement. With such a connection between the conditions, Lövheim believes that treatment of herpes with antiviral medications may be pushed even further to include prevention of Alzheimer’s. However, he said this potential will need further study.
