"Our results strongly suggest that the production of
anti-squalene antibodies is linked to symptoms of Gulf War illness and to the
presence of squalene found in certain lots of anthrax vaccine.....human exposure
to squalene in vaccines has been shown by others to cause immunological symptoms
similar to those found in Gulf War illness patients. ......The absence of an
association between the presence of Gulf War illness and deployment indicates
that the causative agent or factor is not associated with the Persian Gulf.
Consistent with this observation are the results of a recent epidemiological
study finding that vaccinations that were given to both deployed and
non-deployed personnel are associated with ill health. .......The presence of
anti-squalene antibodies in ill people and the absence of the antibodies in
healthy people is the first hard laboratory evidence that Gulf War illness is
what some might refer to as a "real disease." ----Dr.
