    I just saw an article on pacing and long COVID in the Washington Post. It's generally decent, except that it has to mention yet again, that CBT/GET might be useful for some patients- some doctors think. Does anyone have the energy to write a letter to the editor rebuttal to take these people to task? The stop beating the dead horse already?

    Here's the link: https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/01/16/long-covid-fatigue-pacing/

    Is this the article that Whitney Dafoe had a statement in? I can't see the article.
