I will try and keep this post updated with the media coverage of the Dr. Lo & Alter NIH study. Please post any stories in this thread and I will update this post with them
Medical Journals
PNAS, Dr. Alter NIH\FDA Paper\Study: Detection of MLV-related virus gene sequences in blood of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome and healthy blood donors
PNAS, comments on findings: Mouse retroviruses and chronic fatigue syndrome: Does X (or P) mark the spot?
PNAS, editorial: Patients, patience, and the publication process
Science: Second Paper Supports Viral Link to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (A Must Read!)
Science: New XMRV Paper Looks Good, Skeptics Admit—Yet Doubts Linger
