The recording of the "On the Violence of Psychologisation of Postviral Illness: A Habermasian Solution?" talk - with myself, Dr Fabian Fritz (@FFHambu), Sonja Hannibal and Mirja Nicolas is now available online (with subs!) 😍 #LongCovid#MECFS#Injusticeyoutube.com/watch?v=7jENpy…
Incredible talk here at the #UNGA80#indoorair call to action from our very own Violet Affleck! Reminding us that #longcovid affects all of us, the #covid19 pandemic is ongoing and we have failed to protect our children. Thank you, Violet, for speaking the truth to this room 🙏🏻
ITV News reports on the rise in POTS since COVID. A consultant admitted that before the pandemic he “had no idea” about the condition, highlighting how little autonomic dysfunction is taught in medical school.
Tucked away in the resources for the new NHS module on severe ME was this checklist.
I thought it looked useful, so I've reformatted it as slides.
Much of the information is a repeat of the 25% ME Group/Action for ME/BRAME/MEA hospital support document.

International ME community:
ME patient Sanne (38) is denied life-saving treatment.
Sanne has no time left. Only TPN could save her life, but it is being denied.

Highlights from ABC Primetime Live segment on #MECFS
Hillary Johnson describes how CDC employees joked about #MECFS as a fake bogus disease. The segment marked the release of Hillary‘s book Osler’s Web, which exposed the government’s inaction investigating #MECFS.
We were really encouraged by the support we had from the many Senedd Members (MSs) who visited the Severe ME Difrifol Cymru stall at Y Farchnad (The Marketplace) in @SeneddWales on 15th July… 1/4
🔥 Please share - Very important care campaign for anyone with ME #pwME#pwLC ♥️💙🫂
"Campaigning for ME (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) to be medically managed safely, to protect families from permanent disability or death from neglect of the illness"
justice4me.uk
Decades of research and medical neglect means that ME, and now Long COVID, still have zero FDA-approved treatments 💊❌
Zero.
By contrast, other major diseases (now with lower total disease burdens) have dozens.
Hard to recover without treatment...
