Judging from this set of slides it looks like the much anticipated presentation by Lo/Alter
"Is there a Virus in ME/CFS?"
MISTAKE! - the slide below are by Gill. The Alter/Lo slides were not up at the time this post was created - is going to be a severe disappointment. Not only do they appear to pooh-pooh any idea of viral engagement they end by say cognitive behavioral therapy is the best thing for CFS!
Its basically looks like a talk on 'what is CFS' - and I can't fathom why they feel qualified to give it. Its a very generic presentation......Its a head-shaker for sure...
I don't see anything on XMRV or MLV's
These are the slides by Fred Gill - he, along with Alter/Lo are the presenters.
Someone sent me this.

I have pasted the link to Gill's Powerpoint presentation for this talk below. I recommend breathing deeply before going through the slides.
"Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Is there a virus?" given by Drs. Shyh-Ching Lo (FDA), Fred Gill (CC), and Harvey Alter (CC).
