Review for Whittemore Peterson Institute, Reno, NV, USA
I have not had a direct experience with Whittemore Peterson Institute. But the research of Drs. Mikovits and Lombardi at WPI into the link between human gammaretroviruses and neuroimmune illness has given me hope for validation and treatments. I had a slow crash with what is belittlingly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. This dramatically restricts what one can do and imposes heavy flu-like symptoms. In addition to benefits for patients, it is also vital that society become aware of how these retroviruses are transmitted and how best to test for them so as to protect the blood supply. The Whittemore Peterson Institute is at the forefront of such research.

I cannot presume to know what they should do; however, I would wish for them approval of NIH grant proposals and private funding.
