    The Most Underfunded Disease at the NIH (Advocacy video by Winston Blick)

    Great video - one of the best I've seen. Winston has real skill. Maybe we can use it to our advantage. I'd like to see a UK version.

    NICE and Cochrane sign collaborative agreement to deliver ‘living’ guideline recommendations

    Yes, there's a Q+A box on the Zoom talk. Whether they look at it is probably up to the host. Last night SW didn't take questions from the audience.

    United Kingdom: News from BACME - British Association of Clinicians in ME/CFS

    It has passed, Trish. It was last night. I agree that it would be good to have someone from our community attend these meetings, or even join BACME.

    NICE and Cochrane sign collaborative agreement to deliver ‘living’ guideline recommendations

    Deaths from ME/CFS

    I remember coming across this Memorial list https://www.ncf-net.org/memorial.htm Obviously, I can't vouch for its accuracy, and the caveats discussed above apply; that is, this is a 'died with' list, though I have no doubt some on the list died due to ME.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    I'm not certain, but I suspect not. I think everything goes through GP clinics, except pop-up and walk-in centres.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    I am thoroughly confused about the booster roll-out. I was put in Group 6 back at the start of the year and had my second dose in early May. I only got a text about booking my booster last Friday—7 months after my second dose. Have they got rid of the groups now and are just rolling out the...
