It seems to be the water and the friction of proper handwashing that does most of the work. The virus doesn't have an outer envelope, so it...
Yes, I think so. It is spread by infected body fluids, especially in households, but you need to come into contact with them. It's thought that...
Yes. And despite knowing their decision making sometimes raises questions, I'm willing to donate to the Ramsay Research Fund. I wouldn't expect to...
It's discriminatory, there's no other way to look at it. It's like companies that expect young graduates to do a year as an intern before they'll...
I don't think a counsellor would, especially one trained in supporting people with acquired disabilities to adapt to their circumstances. They...
I know! Been a blinding success. Always happens, that. Ought to be called Chief Incompetence Officers. Makes you wonder why anyone takes the risk.

Can you believe they missed off the last sentence? I'll put it right for them.
It's a good point. I know how you train that professional: you get input from people living with ME/CFS. You tell them to forget everything they...
That's interesting. (And infuriating!) I've never qualified for 100% council tax exemption due to being on income related ESA. I get the single...
