He Completely Ignored Your Stuff!

Yesterday at 6:30 pm (Eastern), the town of Huntersville heard an update from Dr. Michael Brennan at the Huntersville Town Hall (101 Huntersville-Concord Rd.). From the 22:30 to 30:40 point, Dr. Brennan spoke: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/112583745 All I could gather from Dr. Brennan were numerous justifications for the grant money given to him (over a year ago). He stated that "the blood testing is done". And there was no mention of the blood work I recommended. A friend of mine (who was listening to the live feed) sent me the above email (the image I chose for this petition update). I wish I knew what to say. I was relieved to hear that the one lady who had twins is doing well (and so are her babies). But clearly, this is not good enough. And there appears to be some additional tissue sample testing that will be conducted. I hope that those investigators will test for the following: 1) A broad range PCR screen for infection by Rickettsiales (Wolbachia genes in blood and tissues). Supporting study: http://www.clinicalmicrobiologyandinfection.com/article/S1198-743X(14)00040-8/fulltext 2) ZIKV test (using any two of these): the Lanciotti E-, the Pyke E- and NS1-, the Bonn E- and the Bonn NS1-based assays. They are the most reliable. Some tests are up to 80 percent inaccurate. Supporting study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5153932 But, I am leery right now of the fine print that may have been included on those "tissue sample consent" forms. And these patients and their families should maintain the right to have another lab (anywhere) retest their tissue and blood samples. Federal law requires laboratories to safely store specimens (biopsy samples) for a set amount of time, at least five to ten years (sometimes longer). According to Aziza Nassar, MD, FCAP, Professor of Pathology and Director of Cytopathology at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida: "Pathologists participate in tumor board reviews ... in which a team of doctors from different specialties work together to reach an opinion ... all laboratories are willing to give patients their biopsy samples if they want a second opinion or treatment from another cancer center."

I have heard nothing back from anyone, so far. I posted (publicly) the top 30 organic visits to my Zika-in-men page (which I believe likely indicates where Wolbachia is also infecting humans). Note the uveal melanoma clusters (Huntersville and Auburn). Atlanta is fourth and only 108 miles from Auburn; Raleigh is 11th and only 140 miles from Huntersville: https://plus.google.com/u/0/107889574670988423996/posts/52DBKNQA7Yu I strongly suspect that ophthalmologists and oncologists in the New York and Ontario, Canada area will see a rise in uveal melanoma cases this fall (or perhaps next fall). Bottom line: Geographic clusters of people living or working near still bodies of water (marshes and lakes) will be most prone to Wolbachia infections from the Culex spp. (which prefer to blood feed from humans from mid-summer through the fall). We don't have to wait for this to happen. We can test people now. I'll be in touch. Note: I have removed some people from this petition and added others who I think can help.
