A friend on mine (Evelien) has succeeded in getting a petition on ME accepted by the EU Parliament [link below*]. The petition highlights the impact of ME on 2 million people in the EU and the lack of EU funding for ME Research. I'd be grateful if you would consider supporting it (and ask friends and family to do so) - i.e. sign the petition.
The EUROMENE (EU Commission funded) biomarker group is due to make recommendations regarding potential diagnostic tests next April (2020); so this might be a good time to raise awareness of the impact of ME in the EU.
ME Action are supporting the petition; you can find out more about how to sign the petition/background etc. on the ME Action website - I'll post again with the links. @EspeMor @Andy
