I've been listening to the video of the Michael Sharpe Swiss Re presentation on Long COVID, and there's a highly disconcerting exchange at the end...
Haven't read this one thoroughly yet, but attached a copy. Fascinating that the sEMG results in the CFS cohort were the opposite to those expected...
This does not seem to augur well for us, but I may yet be surprised. The draft guideline struck me very much as a closely fought compromise...
