Sorry I missed seeing some of you at the National Autism Conference, but I

spent last week at the International Virology Conference in Argentina, and

had the opportunity to meet with many of the world leading virologists and

infectious disease specialists.

There were multiple lectures by expert virologists on the adverse affects of

viruses on our immune system and how viruses are implicated in a vast array

of disorders such as Type 1 Diabetes, Autoimmune Disorders, Guillan Barre

Syndrome, ADHD, Autism, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and more. There was even

discussion about adverse vaccine reactions due to live viruses, and the

dilemma for vaccine researchers on how to make viral vaccines due to their

frequent mutation.

The drug companies were there discussing the challenges with viral

resistance to some of our commonly used antivirals.

I met with scientists who work for vaccine manufacturers, and they are under

enormous pressure from the government agencies to develop effective vaccines

to eradicate viral infections. Most concerning to them are those viruses

which are implicated in pandemics and those which can be fatal such as

Dengue Fever.

I had the opportunity to speak to many influential people about my son's

recovery and the viral aspects of the neuroimmune disorders. To my surprise,

many of them knew more about this than I imagined and had researched it.

Some even referred to it as " viral autism. " I was amazed at the many

discussions around viruses and behavior issues in children, especially

concerning Enterovirus and ADHD.

I wanted to post this here because I find it very reassuring that world

leading virologists are interested in this area and pursuing antiviral

treatment options for our kids.

Dr. has researched and treated viruses for 10+ years, and was a

trailblazer in treating the viral components of the neuroimmune disorders

when it was considered " alternative. " I am just thankful that the

International Virology community is also recognizing this, even if it took

this long.

Best,
