Not exactly true

In reply to Brain viruses cause schizophrenia and bipolar, posted by Mr. SadPuppyDog on October 9, 2002, at 11:51:42

Many of the viruses that have
been implicated to cause depression
are indeed present in depressed
people, but they are also
present in a conciderable number
of non depressed individuals also.

The evidence for genetic basis for
depression is much more compelling
Please note that the two may co-exist.
For instance, the virus may only
cause the biochemical changes in
genetically susceptible people.

There has been a virus that has been
shown to cause a rapid onset of
Parkinson symptoms in individuals
whos genetic makup allows the virus
to do its work. In other words, the
genetic disposition of an indevidual
may only predispose a person to
depression, and the virus finishes the
job.
