David Osmond stated on his website bio that he had West Nile Disease and that was what caused his MS. He didn't go into detail or explain why they think that is the cause of his condition. I looked up West Nile and it says that the neurological damage can be long lasting or permanent. Some of the sx of West Nile are headache, high fever, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, and paralysis.
