Viral Panel Comprehensive
Immunosciences Lab
Sample type: Serum
Requires fasting: No
Phlebotomy is required for this test
Details
This panel measures antibodies against seven different viruses (EBV, CMV, HSV-1, HSV-2, HHV-6, VZV, measles) that are involved in different inflammatory autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue syndrome or myalgic encephalitis, neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, and neurological disorders such as Guillain-Barré syndrome and multiple sclerosis. Reactivation of these viruses is a major driver in increasing the severity of symptoms in patients with COVID-19. The test confirms immunological memory against Varicella zoster (VZV), the causative agent for shingles, and against Rubeola, the causative agent for measles.
