In some ways, the hype seeming to go against prior views could be seen as a reassuring thing?
Getting to the truth is the most important thing. Any attempt to have lower standards for research that might be of some short-term political...
I shouldn't really comment on the internal politics of Australian ME groups when I know so little, but there can also be problems with larger...
I suspect that this is the problem. Lots of these sorts of bodies can have a policy on COIs that is more effective at letting them act as if...
Interesting that there isn't anything on the Science Media Centre website about their briefing.
If they only had funding for a very small study, I can see why they'd want to do what they could to avoid overlooking any possible signal. Even...

Kate Kelland for Reuters:...
Daily Mail coverage: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6502357/Chronic-fatigue-condition-caused-active-immune-study-claims.html
I hope that if any patient groups are asked to comment they don't join in with over enthusiastically hyping this research. @Action for M.E....
