Why not have a selection panel made up of patients?
This is something I very much hope gets pushed for. It's a complete joke at the moment, they say it is safe but there is no process in place to...
One of the key factors will be how well informed the patient reps are at analyzing research and how practiced they are at conveying the problems...
Cool. Would love to see such an analysis of CFS research.
And we'd be holding that mirror up. In public. We aren't going away, the review doesn't magically start looking sound so there is only one...
My interpretation, which may well be wrong, is that as long as you keep your views to yourself in the interview you're assumed not to have any....
