    Patients with severe ME/CFS need hope and expert multidisciplinary care, 2025, Miller et al

    Nope. Definitely some sort of AI / paper mill. Just writing comments/letters on a load of disparate subjects in a load of different journals, all from the past few weeks. There are two other comments from the past 11 days in the BMJ alone. https://www.bmj.com/content/389/bmj.r822/rr...

    I think from your qoute tweet you might be implying that we could look at disability/benefits figures to help with understanding prevalence figures. But it's just not possible — there are too many complicating factors: (taking PIP as an example) lots of people choose not to claim; those over...
