Great that there is coverage of this, but openly lieing on two fronts is just not acceptable.who was this NHS Spokesperson ? speaking on behalf of the NHS
Hey how about a letter of protest to the NHS and the bbc showing there is indeed evidence of a retro viral link that wasnt mentioned on the bbc link, and not addmited to by the NHS ?
( Notice they are carefull to say HERE IN THE UK ) But what of the 50 positives mentioined at the XMRV conferance by Judy M with Stoye in attendance speaking of the ASHFORD 50 UK STUDY. Not exactly no evidence, unless the words of Judy are regarded as meaningless. And at this stage of the game with all the uncertainties of why there is negative studys happening. Not exactly a thorough assesment that is it ? as Cort has pointed out 6 positive and 8 negative studys isnt exactly no evidence, Infact its evidence that something is going wrong with the testing be it contamination, poor cohort selection, poor storage of blood, MLVs not being detected when there assay is looking for XMRV. ( Alter may have shown mutations are more common than we first realized ) And god knows how many more reasons possible to explain the negative studys, as opposed to the positive ones
But no evidence ? i think not
The NHS it appears to me are trying to avert panic, and downplay the impotance of this, ( buisness as usual ) to avert interest, and public pressure, on a condition that Mr Wessley made go away for them ( the NHS )
Only for those pesky americans to stir it all back up again.
Cheers BTW we are in your debt.
