Interesting the way she says she has more understanding of “these chronic conditions” (just after ME and CFS mentioned). Makes me wonder whether she might have been at least somewhat dismissive of them in her head which might help explain why she has seemed fairly desperate to keep them separate.

Presumably an editorial on the recent Jason study on the topic.

Yes, he did. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23263024/

What was found in Jason et al? The BMJ Dubbo paper said 12% at 6 months and 9% at 12 months. I remember Cort Johnson saying something like he heard (possibly from correspondence with Andrew Lloyd?) the figure was really low at 2 years (I think 1-2%) in Dubbo but I never saw anything about it...

It will be interesting to see if objective evidence shows up of his recovery. As was highlighted again over the weekend with a Swedish or Norwegian newspaper article, you are trained to lie after LP. I know less about the other brain training courses but the same doubt may apply to people who...

Also note that parents often accompany children to the Lightning Process training so she (the mother) may have been LPed.

The abstract does mention there was an increase in pain as well as fatigue.

I was thinking about the fact that in some countries some workers e.g. some health workers are out on full pay due to Covid. Now that the pandemic is still raging, there is not much focus on that, but such huge expenses and little incentive for some to go back to work could lead to some...

The ME Association in the UK has asked about experiences with vaccines (or at least the flu vaccine) in the past on their polls on their website:

Personally, my impression is that Francis Collins has shown more interest in ME/CFS than his predecessors and is likely to be better for us on average than a random person who might get the job. I think NIH funding is heavily related to how many applications they get. Not many applications have...

Regarding Greenhalgh, I remember something happened before where someone was asked a question and the ME/CFS community didn’t like the answer and considered it bad PR. I don’t know what happened here but sometimes it’s best not to ask questions about ME/CFS if it might lead to annoying...
