    Havana Syndrome: U.S. and Canadian diplomats targeted with possible weapon causing brain injury and neurological symptoms

    Not the first time David Aaronovitch has given us the benefit of his <cough> medical expertise. When the new NICE Guideline is finally released, no doubt Rod Liddle will be frothing at the mouth to get his opinion out. Look forward, also, to Ned Shorter apoplectically claiming that the NICE...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Perhaps next time the MEA considers inviting a new Patron (and what purpose do they actually serve?) the BoT will consult the membership first.

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    Not that I am aware of, and with the comments on Facebook having been deleted it's not possible to review these. At one point, IMMS, Dr Shepherd had said (in defence of this decision?) that Findley had signed one of the joint letters. Possibly the invitation to join the list of Patrons flowed...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    I agree it should be the Chair of Trustees making public statements in response to this situation. I think part of the problem is that CS sometimes takes upon himself the role of unofficial CEO (an office the ME Association has not had since Val Hockey stepped down in 2003/4). I've come across...
