    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Improves Physical Function & Fatigue in Mild & Moderate CFS: A Consecutive RCT, 2021, Gotaas et al

    "Funny" how these guys co-ordinate their media strategies, but are ready to whine about patient activism if we even say a word, not to forget if we coordinate something out of their unethical eyes.
