#48~ Maybe I'll do a 3 day Medical Study & Publish it?

If psychiatrists can research retrovirology,
and publish medical research papers on 
the same Hey..maybe I can also?  

Heck, why don't we get
a few photographers in, a philosopher 
or two and make it a real party. Not to 
mention an astronomer, a comedian and 
an arborist to keep it balanced! 
Anyone else in?  Look how much 
"media" attention it would get! 

Aren't you TIRED of listening to False

BAD news every day? Let's go 

"on Strike" and only watch/read

THE GOOD NEWS & The TRUTH

from Now ON.. and "Most Importantly" 
Expose the Imposters & Scammers, OK?

Earlier this month that's exactly what
happened in the U.K. regarding a VERY
Important Medical Issue of 
World Importance.

As opposed to waiting for the REAL
Medical Researchers to complete a
REAL study that would replicate the
findings of a new Retrovirus that has
World Health implications...
...tiny minded folks in the pysch
community tried to whip out a
3 day study & write a paper...

When knowing that to do "REAL Research"
takes TIME and meticulous repetition of
not only the EXACT technique originally
used, but also looking for the same strain
of the retrovirus, and using a pool of
test subjects that have been
drawn from the SAME diagnostic criteria
as the original study was...
or else.. 

this Imposter is just THAT..
..and TOTAL SHAM and a disgrace out 

there to the REAL Psychiatrists that are
trying to do some REAL help for their
patients.. 

Especially, if the psychiatrist
that in this study has been previously
involved in muddy situations of possible
child/patient abuse in the past.

And SHAME on the Newspapers &
Magazines and ezines that have so quickly
"jumped onto" this story instead of doing
PROPER "Investigative Reporting."
Obviously, these issues are what we
call in the industry "rags" and not really
producers of Real NEWS, but rather
gossip and BS attention headline grabbing
garbage.... which result in articles that
match the quality of the 3 day study paper
they were "supposedly" reporting on..
aka "Garbage IN = Garbage OUT."

It's HARD enough to get the money
to get REAL Scientific Research funded..
We do NOT need to waste time nor money
for these sham studies or give them ANY
Credibility.... When you read an article,
read the "fine print" also... the details of
who was involved in the study, did they
use proper techniques and reputable
research partners and take the proper
amount of time and use the proper
controls of whom was involved in the
study ??

Just like everything else in life
"Caveat Emptor" = Buyer Beware.
BE an Informed Reader/Patient
/Traveler/ whatever the topic du jour.

My friend that was a reporter taught 
me WELL..
Just because something is in Print
does NOT mean that is it TRUE...
Just because you hear on the radio
doesn't mean it's TRUE...
Just because you read it on the
internet doesn't mean it's TRUE..
Seeing a pattern here?
You mean to tell me you believe every
stupid commercial and ad you read ??
I don't think so....
Unless you are a scammers Dream?

with THAT.. I will give you the Statement
provided from the Original researchers
that did the Original Study that also
collaborated with the Cleveland Clinic 
and the USA National Cancer Institute.

Whittemore Peterson Institute 
Regarding UK Study

Official Statement from the 

Whittemore Peterson Institute 

Regarding UK Study

The Whittemore Peterson Institute (WPI) 

has reviewed the paper entitled 

“Failure to Detect the Novel Retrovirus 

XMRV in Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome.” This study did not duplicate 

the rigorous scientific techniques used 

WPI, the National Cancer Institute and 

the Cleveland Clinic, therefore it cannot 

be considered a replication study nor can

the results claim to be anything other 

than a failure not just to detect XMRV, 

but also a failure to suggest 

meaningful results.

The scientific methods used by WPI are
very exact and require specific techniques
 to ensure accuracy. Differences in
techniques employed by Erlwein et al.
not only explain their failure to

replicate the WPI study, but also render 

the conclusions meaningless.
These differences include, but are
not limited to the following:

1) blood sample volumes and processing;
2) patient criteria/population differences;
3) number and type of tests done to assure
       accurate results, including white blood 
       cell culture;
4) use of a molecular plasmid control in water
       versus a positive blood sample; and
5) different primer sequences and 
       amplification protocol used to find 
       the virus, which were not 
       validated by a clinical control.


The WPI study was published after 

six months of rigorous review and three 

independent lab confirmations, proving 
that contamination had not taken place 
and that infectious XMRV was present in
67 percent of CFS patients diagnosed 
according to the Canadian and
Fukuda criteria. 

In contrast, this latest study
was published online after only three days
of review. Significant and critical questions
remain as to the status of patient samples
used in the UK study as those samples may
have been confused with fatigued psychiatric
patients, since the UK has relegated
“CFS” patients to psychiatric care and not
traditional medical practices.

“Little is known about the prevalence of
XMRV world-wide, much less the incidence
of XMRV in ME/CFS or prostate cancer”
emphasizes Dr. Judy Mikovits.
“WPI and its NCI collaborators are actively
engaged with international research teams
to investigate these important questions.”

WPI does not recommend the use of
anti-retroviral drugs that have yet to be
proven to be effective in treating XMRV
infection. However, several large
pharmaceutical companies have expressed
interest in developing anti-retroviral and
immune modulating drugs that will
effectively treat XMRV associated 
diseases.

WPI looks forward to the results of other
scientific groups around the world, 

serious about replicating its scientific 

results, by using the same techniques as

WPI and its collaborators. The fact that 
XMRV was detected in 67 percent of the 
CFS samples in the U.S. study determined
a significant association between XMRV
and CFS, demanding a much more 

serious inquiry by responsible health 

agencies around the world as to the 

cause of this debilitating disease.

Whittemore Peterson Institute
The Whittemore Peterson Institute for
Neuro-Immune Disease exists to bring
discovery, knowledge, and effective 
treatments to patients with illnesses that
are caused by acquired dysregulation of 
the immune system and the nervous 
system, often results in lifelong disease
and disability. 

The WPI is the first institute in the world
dedicated to
X associated neuro-immune disease 
(XAND), and other X associated diseases,
integrating patient treatment, basic and
clinical research and medical education.
*******************************

Wouldn't the world be in even a worse 
mess if all the people from different 
walks of life could do a 3 day Medical study
and then publish them as if they were 
Medical FACT, while trying to negate the 
work of the Real Scientific Researchers
that have devoted their lives to doing 
REAL WORK in any certain specific field
of Medical Research ?

Besides the Investor Scammers let's

start throwing a wider net and keep 

and eye Open for the Scammers in

other areas of life that are also

Important to us also....like our Health !!!

Doesn't matter WHAT country or 

continent they are from... wrong is 

wrong.

As one my old Favorite movies use to say:

"I'm MAD as Hell and I'm 

NOT going to take it any more."
