I'm not sure about that article. It seems to me to wish to distinguish Late Covid from ME. That seems reasonable for many cases but it doesn't...
Who is going to be the one to tell Paul that his failure to recover is due to his pre-existing psychological vulnerability? It's there. In black...
Don't be like that. It works for healthy people, so it must work for ill ones. Stands to reason.
Yes, there are all sorts of unexplained associations. The meeting setting up the forerunner of HW, Campaign against Health Fraud, was held in, I...
