I don't have the energy to read this article today, so I can't say anything about its content but I'm sharing it as it looks interesting. From Long Flu to Long COVID: A Brief History of Postviral Illness Despite centuries of examples, long-term maladies after flu and other viruses remain...

Also, I don't know about other countries but here you need qualifications to become a medical translator (or any kind of specialized translator). I think this means a university degree in that language + additional specialized training and an exam at the end. This may vary in other countries but...

I have only skimmed it through. I found this part odd: "Factors which may indicate a better prognosis: - Early diagnosis with appropriate identification and management of any other factors – physical, psychological and/or social – which may be relevant. - An acute-onset illness, often...

Though this may be the reasoning behind the fact that the original paper has not been corrected (which I don't actually know, this is just speculation). "Professor Edwards was right but it is just imprecise phrasing, nothing serious."

I have checked the original. In Hungarian there is no ambiguity about what they mean by misinterpretation in that sentence. They mean that their own imprecise phrasing may look like a misinterpretation. They don't mean that their sentences were misinterpreted by others. They mean their sentences...

For people interested in the text behind the paywall: as I said earlier, I happen to own an English translation of the response, which I'm not going to share publicly. I accept messages though. ;)

There has been no mention of anything really. The authors and the journal may consider this a closed case by simply making a response in the journal (without an actual correction of the paper). I'm still waiting for a reply from the journal about the correction but I don't have any high hopes.

I haven't received any reply from the journal yet (maybe I never will) but at least Telex, the news site that broke the story, wrote another article about the fact that the authors acknowledged their statements were not "entirely truthful". Telex is the most widely read news site in Hungary (it...

I have sent the journal this request (Chatgpt translation): Dear Editorial Board of Orvosi Hetilap, In today’s issue of your medical journal, a Letter to the Editor was published in which the authors of the Interdisciplinary Consensus Statement on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue...

Jonathan Edwards messaged the journal Orvosi Hetilap about the misrepresentation of the NICE guideline in the Hungarian consensus recommendation for ME/CFS. Today they have published a response from the authors: https://akjournals.com/view/journals/650/166/27/article-p1079.xml The response is...

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, has resulted in widespread morbidity and mortality, with a significant portion of the affected population experiencing long-term health complications. This review explores the mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in both the acute and...

I'd like to draw your attention to the last paragraph of the article: "The Ministry of Interior, the Medical Professional College, the lead author of the guideline Gábor Simonyi, and Orvosi Hetilap were all contacted about the matter. The latter responded that the next issue of the journal will...

A journalist contacted me after the horrible Hungarian ME/CFS consensus recommendation and misrepresented NICE guideline. She published an article today in one of the largest news sites in Hungary, this is the main article on the page right now. However, she only asked me in a short phone...

Another article by Hollis in Psychology Today. This one is Part 1 of a series, which I find a bit odd, as the previous articles already seemed like a series. Maybe a series within a series? Harnessing Neuroplasticity for Chronic Fatigue Recovery How can we use our psychology to affect our...

Ugh. Someone very recently asked about this in my group ("has anyone here tried...?"). I've never heard about this as an ME/CFS "cure" and was wondering were this idea came from.
