Yes but you can cure them for sure right now with buffered itraconazole.

The concern I have over the media release is that the media release states that they are made resistant and then later it cures them.... these are not necessarily the same thing. A resistant amphibian can still be infected and as such can act as a carrier. This also doesn't make the offspring resistant or cured....

Anytime a media release comes out before the peer review I think back to the cold fusion announcement....
