ATLANTA (AP) — Researchers have identified a mysterious new disease that has left scores of people in Asia and some in the United States with AIDS-like symptoms even though they are not infected with HIV.

The patients’ immune systems become damaged, leaving them unable to fend off germs as healthy people do. What triggers this isn’t known, but the disease does not seem to be contagious.

Adult-onset immunodeficiency in Thailand and Taiwan.

Supported by the Division of Intramural Research, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and the Division of Intramural Research, National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, National Institutes of Health.

IIRC, fed supported research was supposed to be published as FReebies now. Maybe the problem is the date of the funding.

Thanks null and void, for this ping. I wanted to check out this story, but I was having problems with my new computer.
