Research suggests that certain viral infections, including herpes simplex virus (HSV), may be linked to an increased risk of dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease. Chronic inflammation and the potential for the virus to affect brain health over time are areas of concern. However, more studies are needed to establish a definitive causal relationship between herpes and dementia. As of now, while there is some evidence of a connection, it is not yet conclusive.
