The fix is in. The first protocol they placed on their servers was no accident. How one say that they are going to use the Reeves criteria which allow chronic depression and fatigue into the study but say that everything with be CCC or ICCC. Didn't make any sense. They then did about face and said that Reeves will not be used...sure.
Why not take one of Walitt's research papers on fibromyalgia or chronic pain and load the file up in
MSWORD Click on
Find fibro or chronic pain or cfs and click
Replace with ME/CFS. NIH could have that published and out the door in two weeks. The NIH can save a ton of money since the NIH already knows the result of this testing from the previous paper and in a sense this will be like replication of those results. I'm being sardonic here
Better yet, abort this damn research trial and give the funds to
Institute of Medicine Foundation so
Ron Davis and his staff can conduct the research trial appropriately which will lead the way to new discoveries on
'the Last Great Disease' and can be trusted as he has interest to make it right.
Over the last few years, recent research headlines have herald new and exciting descriptions as textbook altering discoveries.

These discoveries will no doubt impact scientific research in the foreseeable future. This will give researchers greater knowledge on the pathogenesis of many diseases. How the brain drains into the lymphatic system will play a significant role concerning immune dysfunction.
There is a paradigm shift to move away from mind-body dualism in biomedical research and to adopt 'live body' or the BPS model to the point of
biomedical denialism. For those representing one school of thought, ( Wessely et al ) would have you believe that psychopathophysiology causes biological abnormalities and functional movement disorders.This philosophy is deeply entrenched into the mindset of the researchers within the NIH. Confirmation/Selection bias guaranteed..
As it stands now, the NIH knows that this reseach trial is just a another exercise of rearranging the deck chairs on the titantic and the results are going to be the same troubling untenable deeply disturbing research papers of the past.
Nath stated something about being vocal like the AIDS group. Patients should boycott participating as patient recruit in this study.
With Nath and Unger going on record stating there is biological or neruoimmune reaction to some infectious agent that effects the immune system, will Walitt be the fall guy for this disaster?
