    The biology of coronavirus COVID-19 - including research and treatments

    Yes. I’ve seen examples of people in the U.K. being innovative in making sure any spare doses are used. Reserve lists of patents to call in at short notice. Using the spare doses to vaccinate the volunteers who help at the vaccination centres etc....

    Low oxygen SPO2 anyone?

    Interesting what you say about haemoglobin. On the rare occasions I have had blood test the only thing that has been outside the parameters has been red blood cell volume, slightly low at least twice and red blood cell count slightly low or just on low end of range. I’m thinking of getting a...

    Trisha Greenhalgh on ME/CFS and Long Covid

    I don’t think generalised criticism of people with ME on social media who are ordinary folks whose circumstances we can’t possibly know is constructive or contributes anything positive to advocacy.

    Trisha Greenhalgh on ME/CFS and Long Covid

    I think being upset by gaslighting is a rational response. We can’t know individual circumstances and being able to be consistently calm clear and reasonable is a privilege associated with people who are healthy and don’t have all the challenges associated with having a chronic illness...

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Trisha Greenhalgh on ME/CFS and Long Covid

    I was actually following her because she was doing some good posts about masks in the spring and I followed her then. I’ve unfollowed her now.

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    I had shared his previous BMJ blogs on my Facebook which open to a small number of friends and family. It really won’t make any difference but I really didn’t feel comfortable having his articles on my timeline so I’ve gone back and deleted those posts. I hope he is doing as well as he says...

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    Ok I guess he’s been in the Mail which is more tabloid than broadsheet but his coverage at one time was better than anything we were seeing in the broadsheets especially the Guardian. The better articles in broadsheets are a pretty recent phenomenon

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    I’m a bit surprised @dave30th didnt mention Jerome Burne as he’s done some decent reporting of ME in the U.K. in recent years.

Considered bridge or implant but taking account of the benefits and costs of each option I decided I’m getting on ok with just leaving the gap as is. Although If another tooth on that side had...
