COTEP.org - CCP Virus. Facts you may not know. From an Expert

Dr. Mikovits participated in and helped direct the NIH study that disproved her theory on the XMRV virus being a human pathogen, and that it was linked to chronic fatigue syndrome.

Now she counts on people not knowing that little fact when she talks about the conspiracy to discredit her research. She is the one that finally discredited it completely and admitted she was wrong.

Aliquots of specimens collected from each subject were distributed in duplicate in a blinded fashion to the two teams who initially reported XMRV (Mikovits and Ruscetti) (10) or pMLV (FDA) (11) in CFS populations and to the team that first reported failure to replicate their findings (CDC). To best replicate previous study designs, the FDA and Mikovits/Ruscetti/Hanson labs analyzed subject peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and plasma; RNA from cultured cells was sent from the Ruscetti lab to the Hanson lab. The design and interpretation of experiments conducted in the Ruscetti and Hanson labs were guided by Mikovits.

Our results definitively indicate that there is no relationship between CFS/ME and infection with either XMRV or pMLV. Indeed, we did not find any evidence of human infection with XMRV or pMLV

But the results of the biggest study of all had yet to come out. Funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and led by Ian Lipkin of Columbia University, the $1 million multicenter project finally published its results on Tuesday in mBio—and not surprisingly, it concludes that the XMRV theory is really, really dead. What is surprising, scientists say, is that Judy Mikovits, the main author of the 2009 paper and the staunchest defender of a role for XMRV—or something closely related—is won over. Mikovits, who participated in Lipkin’s study, concedes it is “the definitive answer. … There is no evidence that XMRV is a human pathogen.”

No previous study had tried to replicate her findings using her exact methods, Mikovits says. “I’m forever grateful to Ian Lipkin for making it possible to participate,” she says. Lipkin says he is “proud” of Mikovits for accepting the outcome.
