People who suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) were dealt another blow this week when it became clear that researchers still fail to understand the genesis of this disease. Perhaps most importantly, these patients are being advised to stop taking antiretroviral medications.
Two new papers published this week in Science cast additional doubt on a two-year-old study that had linked chronic fatigue syndrome to the xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus, or XMRV.
