Dr Shor believes it is important for every medical practitioner to be aware of the new aspects of this disease, and that all facts concerning the circumstances, the finding of the germ, the specific pathological features and other aspects which change the concept of heart attacks, remarkably, methods of diagnoses of the lesion should all be known. Details and facets of the lesion are necessary for assessment, acceptance or rejection of this very important new disease, by the scientific community. It opens up new diagnosis and treatments, with potential cure and eradication of this deadly disease. Immunization or eradication of this germ if possible will open new horizons.
