Someone from a private company selling a test which it wants to market and then talking about treating them, when we have no idea about treatment…...
So now we’re moving beyond types of virus to variants within a virus! Makes you think though, if (still a big if) ME/CFS is virally triggered is...
I find this interesting going back to my experience of vaccines, no problem with the flu one but significant issues with mRNA and viral vector...
Could it just be the effect of age here or did they account for that? Presumably those who were pregnant were younger and the difference looks...
And a write up on Arstechnica https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/01/how-sleeping-pills-interfere-with-the-brains-internal-cleaning-mechanism/ I...
Having read the rest of the thread I think the answer to my question is somewhere between ‘yes’ ‘lots of potential reasons’ and ‘it’s complicated’…

Read this email earlier, all really good stuff to hear. The numbers involved, the DNA data having been processed, extra questionnaires. The work...
I can get a delayed PEM response from sitting at a sink and washing my face. Or raising my hands and using clippers to cut my hair (even if lying...
Absolutely agree @Kitty I’ve been reading (listening to) the paper some more and made some notes… On the one hand I’m not sure this can be...
I suppose you could say it’s caused by exertion more than exercise? But even that isn’t telling the whole story and it’s certainly not a 1-1...
The problem is then that probably becomes a disincentive for private companies to run trials. Or at least they will say it is and/or threaten to...
Really interesting. I remember Demis Hassabis talking about how AI/ML is well suited to problems with large search spaces (AlphaGo, AlphaFold) and...
