An Australian news story about a "post-covid clinic" in a private hospital (from what I could tell from the story, the public hospitals in...
This is a good article by Marie-Claire Seeley from The Australian POTS Foundation:
He's also the current Chair of ME/CFS Australia.
I vaguely recall this Ioannidis paper causing quite a bit of controversy at the time:
