Before I describe what little more about it I know, let me clear two things
up. I will be referring to a "virus", but I don't know what it actually is. I
may sometimes say Gundam instead of mech. That's because I just spent 30
minutes looking up Gundam, not because it's a Gundam anime (although it might
be).

So, I know it's a mech anime. When they enter the mech, they pass through a
circle that applies a form fitting suit that they use to control the mecha.
(I'm actually not totally sure about this).

One of the episodes involved a conference and/or other group of people
collected together talking about the "virus". One of the attendees is infected
(and there's something about them they have to hide to prevent people from
finding this out).

The "virus" bas stages (I think) eventually takes over the infected (while
they are in a mecha), and the infected loses control (becomes controlled?). If
I recall correctly, the inside of the mecha now looks like a fleshy hell pit
created by the "virus".

I'm fairly certain it was on Toonami. I'm 100% certain it was on T.V. in the
US sometime between 1998 and 2005.

g-gundam
Mecha anime with a "mind control virus"


Your anime might be: [Mobile Fighter G
Gundam](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Fighter_G_Gundam)

Firstly it was **aired in Toonami in 2002** , so it fits the initial bill.

Then in the wikipedia page, The plot section has this one specific fragment:

> As they encounter Gundam pilots who had come in contact with the Dark
> Gundam, Domon and Rain learn of its unique cellular properties to
> regenerate, multiply, and **evolve by infecting organic matter and causing
> violent behavior in living things.**

So we know that this anime is about mechas and there is a virus thing, namely
the Dark Gundam, that has abilities to corrupt organic matter and evolve
in/with it (or something along those lines).

Then as I searched for footage of the anime, I came upon this video of the
[first episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CLIHBOCJPM) which in its
first seconds shows the character going through a **circle** in order to wear
a **suit** , just like you also told.

I'm not sure about **the meeting** part, for I haven't watched it, but as for
everything else you've told, it's a dead giveaway.

Hey is it a series called Blue Gender? They had a full series, 24 or 26 eps
Then later crammed that into a movie-type-event-ization. Here's the trailer
for theFunmation dvds. I think u can still get it.
