Great find LJS. Is this guy Simon Wessely's twin?

Randy Schekman:

''I would hope that he would do that next or someone would do that next before the NIH calls for clinical trials and certainly before patients start being treated with antiretroviral drugs off-label. That could be a very bad consequence of this.''

NB: 86.5% of CFS people XMRV+ in the Alter/Lo paper, even more than the 85% previously reported.

LOL! The link to the CDC's XMRV info is not working -- at least not for me.

Well ... the CDCs link to XMRV - did it ever work? ;-)

CDC, FDA, and NIH investigators have been collaborating with scientists from other agencies and groups with regard to XMRV and MLV research, and they will continue to do so

I thought the CDC stopped and burried that thing already?

well, I called metro paper, Birmingham News. He was interested. I gave him phone number of someone else to interview. He talked to her, but she lives in another pat of the state, so he asked me. I said ok.

So, there you go. If it is good, I will post it. If it isn't, I won't.

by the way, Birmingham News is major newspaper, largest readership in state.
