There is considerable debate over the degree to which persistent viral infections contribute to neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. If persistent viral infection causes generalized pathology over time, such as via increased chronic inflammation in later life, one would expect it to increase the incidence and severity of most age-related conditions. With that in mind, researchers here analyze a sizable body of study data to quantify the correlations between viral infection and cardiovascular disease. As one might expect, the results suggest that better control of viral infection could improve late life health.

It is well recognized t…
