ShareThisLatest Paper links 85% of ME/CFS patients with a form of Retrovirus !!
This is "one" of the days we've been waiting for... and it did NOT disappoint.
Here is a pdf copy of the Alter/Lo paper if you want to read the whole thing..
PNAS-2010-Lo-1006901107.pdf
As of this moment's count over 104+ articles have been written per Google by various new agencies/papers about this research Paper on the latest RETROVIRUS Family that is infecting HUMANS...a good number of them unfortunately tho seem to MISS the Major POINT Here.. that THIS is a Retrovirus... NOT just your average "I've got a cold" Rhinovirus..
Maybe they forgot HIV that caused AIDS is a RETROVIRUS ??
The NEXT Question is WHEN are they going to take it SERIOUSLY with regard to the "Public Blood Supply" and DEMAND that the blood supply be screened for this Family of Retroviruses so that every person about to "donate/receive" blood or receive a transfusion does NOT have to worry about passing on the Horrible Diseases that those of us for the last 24 years have suffered from... it may not kill you IMMEDIATELY Like AIDS, but Trust me, it WILL Kill your Life As YOU Knew it...
It is Progressive and can/will go on to cause other organs to fail and take your families energies, bankrupt bank accounts and any semblance of a "normal life" they had with it.

Statement on XMRV/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Positive replication study confirms WPI’s findings
The Whittemore Peterson Institute(WPI) would like to congratulate the distinguished authors of the recently released replication study linking XMRV with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Dr. Shyh‐Ching Lo of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Dr. Harvey Alter of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Their published findings in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), confirm the central thesis of WPI’s 2009 study associating a new human gamma retrovirus, XMRV, with patients diagnosed with myalgic
encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) while also providing answers for the failure of others to find such a link.
Validation by these prestigious researchers from two United States governmental agencies demonstrates the need for expanded research on human gamma retroviral infection and its association to ME/CFS and other neuro‐immune diseases.
“We are hopeful that with continued collaboration between our government, the biomedical industry and institutions such as the WPI, we will continue to discover answers for the millions around the world who suffer with neuro‐immune diseases,” said Annette Whittemore, president and founder of the Whittemore Peterson Institute. For additional thoughts by Dr. Judy Mikovits, please view (below).
The WPI is committed to the research and further understanding of XMRV and its
relationship to neuro-immune disease. With the recent opening of the institute’s new translational research facilities located on the medical school campus of the University of Nevada, Reno, come expanded opportunities for new avenues of research and development of effective diagnostics and treatments for those affected by neuro-immune disease.

As a sufferer of CFS/ME for the past twelve months. I find sharing my experiences with others helps me feel less isolated and gives me something positive to focus on. To this end, with my family's assistance, we have started our own site. If you visit on the attatched link http://dld.bz/mBZq or http://www.youranswerswithin.com/index.html and like what we are trying to achieve, you might consider exchanging your HTML banner code or your URL so we can advertise on each others sites and hopefully spread the word to a greater audience.
