Relation To Paget's Disease
Paramyxoviruses, such as CDV, measles, respiratory syncytial virus, simian virus 5, and parainfluenza virus type 3, have long been suspected as the causative agents of Paget's disease, a focal destructive disease of bone. Most studies, however, have pointed more directly at CDV and measles. A virus detection technique, in situ RT-PCR, has found CDV in 100% of Paget's disease samples, whereas other virus detection techniques have been less accurate.

“Much poetry seems to be aware of its situation in time and of its relation to the metronome, the clock, and the calendar. ... The season or month is there to be felt; the day is there to be seized. Poems beginning “When” are much more numerous than those beginning “Where” of “If.” As the meter is running, the recurrent message tapped out by the passing of measured time is mortality.”
—William Harmon (b. 1938)
“Whoever grows angry amid troubles applies a drug worse than the disease and is a physician unskilled about misfortunes.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
