Wasn't there also a chronic Lyme study which started to recruit way back in the latter 90's and, last time I checked, was still recruiting? Could...
Talk about counter-intuitive. But then again, I'm a creature of the 60's.
Feels like a medical coup took place during the depths of covid, and now potentially millions of sick are at risk.

Feels oddly like damage control.
Boy, I'd think twice about using the word "behaviour" in any hypothesis that involves pwME with this group...
I'm wondering how trained immunity might tie into immune tolerance (as in the exact opposite) where a damaged immune system lets in pathogens or...
"For Tal, the similarities with Lyme disease were uncanny. “Long covid looks exactly, and I mean exactly, like chronic Lyme,” she says. “One is...

I'm still not clear on the purpose of this test in ME/CFS patients. It's purpose, not whether it's actually capable of measuring anything, or...
This in part is why I earlier suggested the patients need to lead the way. Let the pateints pick the PI and investigation team, and oversee the...
You may be right. I know you are. I'm not sure that's quite accurate. Nice thought, though. To a lot of people. Others, not so much. Agreed.
True, but I think that's where we need to be looking. Looking for a smoking gun the same way with the same methods hasn't been working out so...
"Their brain is telling them, 'no, don't do it, " says Nath. It's not a voluntary phenomenon." "This is a novel observation, says Komaroff,...
I think it does show something. I think the "effort" process demonstrates an unfortunate bias embedded in the study. I cannot figure out what it...
Do we know who from the NIH that was involved in the ME/CFS study will be involved in the LC effort besides Nath and Walitt? I worry about a...
Odd. To me it sounds awfully like he is clueless, indifferent, or part of the problem.
Didn't they have ME/CFS researchers advising them? There should be a response from that group. There also should be a coordinated response from...
It's not just fatigue or weakness. ME/CFS includes other feelings of sickness. Balance, poisoned sensation, pain, dizziness - this study seems to...
I cannot decide whether this study is a Fool or a Tool.
