The article has now been updated with a comment from dr. Vicky Whittemore apologising and providing link with a list of the reviewers who participated in the recent ME/CFS CEP.
A tweet by Tuller:
Wow, Professor Michael Sharpe, who blames Guardian columnist @GeorgeMonbiot for causing Long Covid, posted this comment under my blog about it: "I do believe the word ‘hysterical’ is Dr Tuller." Professor Sharpe, can you translate that into English, please?

Opinion piece in the New York Times: The Mysterious Aftermath of Infections by Roxanne Khamsi.

I can only find a link to their general YouTube channel of the Upptalks, but not the unlisted video with today's talk on the facebook event.
But they write that they will add subtitles to today's talk and upload it within a week. So a more official upload is on its way :-)
Oh it's already out. That's great. Thanks @mango for sharing.
May I ask where you found the link? I see it's the University that has uploaded it on their YouTube channel, but as an unlisted video and I wonder if it's ok to share the link further on social media.
That's very kind of you. I saw that there were 1.1 K attendees on the Facebook event for this talk. The previous event had about 120 participants. Perhaps they'll decide to share today's recording as the interest was so big? If not, it would be great to hear your audio recording, so thank you so...
Thanks @mango I was a few minutes late, and the zoom room had reached its limit of 300 participants, so couldn't access the talk. Seems there's been a lot of interest, so maybe they'll do this again sometime :-)

I remember there were some critical articles in Sweden on this phenomenon a while back. They're referenced in this paragraph on Wikipedia:
- More recently, this phenomenon has been called into question, with two children witnessing that they were forced by their parents to act apathetic in...
This is a 6 minute film created by Inga Topolnicki. I thought it was moving and impressively well made!
