Funny that they don't assess the risks and burdens associated with their 'therapies', isn't it? I do hope everyone writes that in red ink all...
My friend's daughter told her that she'd been so worried about getting infected at work in London that she'd done three LFTs the day before...
Yes, me too. Though in their case, their primary course of immunisation was described as consisting of three doses rather than two, so the fourth...
The whole thing looks complicated to me, too. The immune system clears the virus quite quickly in most healthy younger people, so the theory seems...
Nor the phenomenon where some people appear to recover well from acute Covid, but then develop hard-hitting chronic symptoms weeks or even months...
Charity-speak for a specific type of income. It's the result of work by a specialist fundraising team, and usually comes from sources other than...
Noooo! What a pain in the bum. I had to wait six months and a week, but since they reduced it to three months, quite a few of my younger friends...
Health minister doesn't necessarily mean the secretary of state for health. It could just as well have been a brief conversation with some junior...
I read it as a correlation that doesn't reach statistical significance. But then again I haven't mastered long division yet, so I'm not exactly...
Hopefully the NHS won't touch it with a 10-foot pole, since it sounds very unlikely to be any kind of a match with the NICE guidelines.
Especially as people habituate to many medications fairly quickly. They may still have some effect, but of course not all of them will reduce a...
I do wish someone had researched this. If a significant percentage of people really are having adverse reactions, and a few (myself included) had...
Yep—and we talk an awful lot about what we don't want. We need to pipe up more about what we need.
Thank you, I think I'll go for that version. (Don't know a word of Norwegian, so it won't annoy me at all.)
So only people who know nothing at all about an illness are qualified to understand it. Well, that explains an awful lot of the last 30 years.
Especially as people get into old age, surely. A relative of ours developed ME during the second world war, and had it until she died of...
I suspect that (carefully?) excludes most ME patients, to be honest!
I know it starts off with the usual guff about exercise, but to be fair, it's about showing an effect in humans with cognitive impairment and mice...
One way would be to find funding for a trial in a country where this treatment is not currently being offered, but which has the capability to do...
I think you could reveal how ME affects my cognitive abilities pretty well by giving me an easy crossword (like the Guardian Quick) when I was...
