Thank you. I suppose the terminology is even less specific than I thought, if it also includes ongoing symptomatic COVID-19. So, this definition...
I do not recognize most of these names, but it shouldn't surprise us to see Paul Garner and Flottorp, who I recall recently endorsing an RCT of...
Wow, thanks Nisreen, that really means a lot to me. So, Long COVID is an umbrella term encompassing organ damages and "ME-like" symptomology...
I like how they're engaging in the usual tactics of rerouting discourse towards Cartesian dualism, relabelling patients with their own...
Man, I was looking for extra information on how this topic is pertinent to GWS to prevent going off-topic, but there's just straight up nothing to...
Even if it were possible for this to happen sometimes, it'd still be a matter of sensitivity and specificity, which is why everyone here is so...
Ciprofloxacin administration is explicitly one of the major risk factor for opportunistic C. difficile infection, so this does sound a little...
One of the main complaints about the Long Covid construct I've seen was the lack of specificity with respect to underlying pathology, but I guess...

You'll be elated to know that our old friend Simon Wessely had already solved that particular mystery....
I have an airman friend who suffered GWS, and she wasn't even part of the Gulf War. It was from the anthrax vaccine, but the burning trash pits in...
