Mikovits is peed off as hell about the IC study, serious annoyed. She's only talking about the science, this is what we need.
Gosh I'd love to see Judy and Myra duke it out, I know where my money would be.

She's talking about hanchuchu - he sent her letters asking for help. And that they found a much more aggressive virus in that China cohort.
She just now mentioned China, with someone contacting her desperate for help. She mentioned (I think) someone going over there to check it out, and said something about how it might be XMRV in possibly a more aggressive form. I think we have a member here with a thread on what's going on in China?
That was fun to watch.

She just now said that they're looking into transmission right now, they're doing a study with testing the saliva of those infected with XMRV to see if transmission through saliva is a possibility.
She did say that someone from the CDC tested her samples for contaminants, and every single one of them came out clean, that he admitted it was not a contaminent. But I'm nto sure if that's what you were looking for.

Now she's laughing because she said when I saw that XMRV was involved in prostrate cancer, those men can't possibley ignore this now.

It sounded like the CDC acknowledged it wasn't a mouse virus, and confirmed in cannot be a contaminate because it is a new human retrovirus?

Right, that's hanchuchu. I know he sent her letters, but he doesn't know that they followed up.

Yes, and she also said that since it reproduced in culture it couldn't be a contaminant. I think.
Yes, exactly.
Exciting, huh? Though I don't know if that was the official consensus, but I do know that one CDC guy openly acknowledgde it. In fact, she said that using a specific test he found contaminants even in his own lab, but there weren't any at all in the WPI samples. I'm sorry I didn't catch his name.

Now she's saying that the questions, which we couldn't hear, will be reproduced on their site and on prohealth. Plus her answers. and she's saying it isn't necessary or probable that XMRV or another virus "piggyback on each other"/

Yeah, its 20 past midnight here in the UK and we missed most of it too. I doubt they've got the missing minutes.
