This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

This is the Lancet Neurology link to the review article, but there is no abstract:

However, there is also this:

I have read the whole article and the piece by Giovannoni especially is very good.

What I find interesting in this report, is that "Koch took more than a decade to convince his contemporaries that Mycobacterium tuberculosis was the cause of tuberculosis". Can't see the wood for the trees.

PS I subscribe to the Lancet so if anyone wants more information please PM me. There is fascinating stuff on EBV from Gavin Giovannoni and on Chlamydia pneumonia by Sriram at Vanderbilt. If only there were effective anti-viral drugs out there I'd be taking them too.

Quite, and it took twenty years for the h pylori and stomach ulcer link to be fully recognised. Even more trees.

Now why didn't you mention Hammerschlag's piece, Alex?
