    This study came out at the start of February.  No test has ever been shown to work in CSF, yet they claim to be using the Lombardi et al primers, which tested blood! Same goes for claiming they used a positive control from VipDx.  That would be blood not CSF.   They also had no healthy controls, used water.   The patients were said to meet Fukuda, but described Reeves.   Why would anyone expect this study to find XMRV?
