From: "What Works Now?: Evidence Informed Policy and Practice" I can't see the whole chapter but it looks like there might be something there of interest to some people trying to challenge some supposedly "evidenced-based" claims https://books.google.ie/books?hl=en&lr=lang_en&id=LiGKDwAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PA225&dq="chronic+fatigue+syndrome"&ots=VmRhnFAKDy&sig=DNWHdAPXUWYSyZTymeZJh-hz1iU&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q="chronic fatigue syndrome"&f=false https://twitter.com/user/status/1103006335870865410
That quote is from 2007 [edit - sorry, misread this], and seems to be suggesting that published evidence can't be trusted, so the writer prefers to base their decisions on anecdote.
Okay. I think the chapter itself looks more nuanced and that was mainly what I was referring to. By the way, I'm not sure that quote is from 2007. No results from the PACE trial had been published at that stage. Edited to add: Actually, I'm almost definite the more recent given she refers to a 2018 publication.
Oops, you're right, it actually refers to 2018 in the text. The 2007 refers to the date of a book referred to at the bottom of the quoted section.
