I think there is a lot to the -- those that recover become carriers. Also, think I read Crotalus, Pythons, and especially Ball Pythons are highly susceptible.
I'm thinking it is some form of immune deficiency disease, where snakes can be brought back from illnesses (Respiratory Infections, Stomatitis, lesions) brought on by the syndrome, but relapse easily if stressed environmentally or physiologically. And they do continue to be carriers.
Just my thoughts.
