Ok, but most of these studies are based on confirmed PCR tests which if I understand correctly require virus particles, not necessarily antibodies.
On Twitter someone pointed me to this Danish preprint which found that 16% of patients reported fatigue and 13% concentration...

Leonard Jason research finds that many young people have ME/CFS
A new study finds that 0.75%, or 1 in 130 young people, have ME.CFS. That's a lot of people living with the illness. Only 5% of those diagnosed with the illness already had a diagnosis. Prevalence increased rapidly as children...
The team of Leonard Jason have performed a prevalence study in Chicago on children and adolescents with ME/CFS.
Because this was a community-based study with clinician confirmed diagnosis, this is probably one of the best studies on the prevalence of pediatric ME/CFS thus far...

hi I’m sure I can get overall population for my city and region can anyone point me to what the % figure is that gives around 250k PWME in the UK. This could be useful on Sunday.
I think I remember reading a UK study that characterized patients by NICE, Oxford, and Fukuda and gave the prevalence of each. Does anyone remember that study and if so, could you share the study name or link?
Thanks in advance
My aim on this thread is to share the results of my digging into this question over the last couple of days. I have found several papers with very different figures and will post them in a series of posts here.
