We were previously told the blue organ is a cell nucleus. Is that incorrect?

That would contain lots of DNA and would therefore stain blue...

Edited -
DAPI (pronounced 'DAPPY'), or 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole, is a fluorescent stain that binds strongly to adenine–thymine rich regions in DNA. It is used extensively in fluorescence microscopy.

So the mystery molecule must be sncRNA U14
I think the mystery molecules are sncRNA U14, Human U6 snRNA and the last one on the screen says Scrambled RNA(Dont know what he means by that- Is it varying from person to person)

I think it's because I always though was going to be the case: "ME" is actually many diseases
I think it’s one disease triggered by different viruses that cause the same problem. I imagine they will find similar results with CMV and EBV I wonder if they have already looked for these In The same place they are finding the HHV6.

We've been shown that various viruses share genetic codes that facilitate their- take over. So its likely these various differing viruses may have similar effects...

Wonder if different viruses tend to invade different tissues...that might result in- TYPES of ME expression.

@Rufous McKinney absolutely! Or the different viruses cause a slightly different immune response which could be why some people have this antiviral response and others catch everything! The new ground prusty and others are uncovering is astonishing! And mainly going unnoticed in The rest of the medical world!

It would sure be nice to better understand this antiviral phenotype thing- at the moment we have this new corona.....

It does seem hot off the press..plus no Press Yet (waiting for actual publication).....

With all this interest in viruses at the moment, you'd think we could more effectively somehow PR ourselves and hitch together our wagons....

Wow! Starting at 4:48 on Prusty's video, he explains why people with ME/CFS don't get the flu! The flu is a fast-growing virus and our cells (ME/CFS patients) lack the nutrients necessary for the virus to grow! I wonder if this is applicable to COVID-19? We may have a natural immunity of sorts - too sick to get sicker! :confused:

@Mary yes it’s fascinating! Explains why I don’t get sick for sure! Weren’t we talking about this in another post? Now my question is are the people who get sick all the time suffering with a differnt variation of ME/ virus or are they confusing their “sickness behaviour” for catching something.
