Is this done easily on youtube?

I'll likely write a blog. I'm not sure there's much point to responding to the journal.

Are these the ancesters of Trudie Chalder? Are you suggesting there is wisdom somewhere in her genetic line?

This boom-and-bust never made sense to me for that reason, because it presumed the same individuals were doing both, and the impulses would seem to cancel each other out. The whole thing doesn't make any sense psychologically.

They're trying to revive the term "post-infectious fatique syndrome" (PIFS), which is the term COFFI uses and is mentioned in the now-outdated Fukuda definition from 1994. On the other hand, Dr Iwasaki and others are now using the term "post-acute infection syndrome" (PAIS). I know there's been...

They mean the Lightning Process, I gather.

If we were in the US, these are the ones who would have assault weapons.

exactly. they've lost control of the narrative and they want it back, which is understandable. but it was their narrative for decades and it produced nothing.

And certainly she needed to be honest about having swapped outcome measures rather than pretending it was 100% prospective with no outcome changes.

He seems to be a true believer.

This is a really good point, and it made me laugh. And it also made me sad. Because you're right, the revolution here could have happened whenever if people had not accepted such crap research as actionable. But part of what helped the shift is the Institute of Medicine and NIH reports from...

Thanks, Trish and Richard. Since the previous piece was published in May, 2021, before the release of the final NICE guidelines, we thought it would be worthwhile to provide an update and reinforce the point that events had continued to shift in the appropriate direction.

In the U.S., Health Affairs is generally viewed as the leading health policy journal. Not sure if it's read much elsewhere. What's great about these Forefront articles (until they gave it this name, it was just the blogging platform) is that they are edited in-house rather than peer-reviewed. I...

That's a pretty salient acknowledgement. Does anyone know of other studies where participants have been tossed out for not sufficiently believing in the effectiveness of the treatment??

I hope another donation doesn't re-trigger the flood!

Thanks. I've tried. It's really beyond my control. I've explained that these are "Tuller donations" and not "Berkeley donations," that it's a waste of resources and so on, and I'm told ok, something has been noted in the system, but then I hear people still get these things. And I think what...
