Current methods passed on from Robert Gallo who turned all of modern Virology on it's head (after actually being reprimanded by Congress for Scientific Fraud) is that the "New" virologists use the following methods to CLAIM viral isolation:

First the finding of RT. [Reverse Transcriptase.] Then a finding of purported genetic sequencing relying on PCR. (although this is actually impossible since they haven't yet positively identified it. - every SINGLE electron micrograph shows massive contamination by microvesicles - I dare you to show me otherwise... I've looked at them all) --Then they perform either ELISA or Western Blot Antibody testing. None of these methods can identify a Virus - none of these methods can claim the finding is causative and they certainly cannot claim to identify causal presence. Not until "they" actually ISOLATE the subject virus can it be formally claimed to have been isolated and purified then E.M. photographed only then may it be identified as causal. The current methods are pure scientific nonsense. Every single current CDC, WHO and NIH scientist purporting this nonsense is working off the same criteria. Look for 'patel's' name . I wouldn't know how it feels to be retarded but I do know how it feels to be black-listed and ignored.

as for the presence of RT. Here are the damning words from Robert Gallo's own mouth (and which peer review has demonstrated repeatedly) -- back in the 1970s proving RT is not FOUND in "unstimulated" samples of Leukemic blood.

now how does it feel to be retarded?
