    Public urged to wear face masks again as new Covid sub-variant sweeps Britain

    GP surgery & hospitals here no longer wearing masks, everyone back to 'normal'. So everyone has to sit there breathing in the soup of all the people coughing etc, sitting crammed together & no ventilation. I was the only person in there not just with an N95, but with any face covering at all.

    Ginsenoside Rg1 can reverse fatigue behavior in CFS rats by regulating EGFR and affecting Taurine and Mannose 6-phosphate metabolism 2023 Lei et al

    I dont know how many times we have to say ME CFS is not ''having been pushed to do a lot more exercise than youre used to & are now knackered" FFS i just give up. All the wasted money and time. Quite apart from the cruelty... you cant test anything on animals that you think have CFS, you cant...

    Associations between daily routines and social support among women with chronic fatigue syndrome 2023 Rosenburg et al

    indeed yes. I mean who doesnt 'enjoy' resting when doing otherwise is torture. I have heard people with migraines say things such as 'no please dont turn the radio on i'm enjoying the silence'.... but every dumbo knows that they dont really mean 'enjoying' it the same way one enjoys their...

    Associations between daily routines and social support among women with chronic fatigue syndrome 2023 Rosenburg et al

    i thought that too. its so absurd i thought i'd misunderstood exactly. I sobbed yesterday about my inability to participate. The exclusion is like a punishment. And its not that i dont have enough social support but that i am too *&$$!£* ill to participate in it. If you are so ill that talking...

    Independent advisory group for the full update of the Cochrane review on exercise therapy and ME/CFS (2020), led by Hilda Bastian

    crikey, well done @Caroline Struthers thank you for all the work you've put in. Disgraceful response but par for the course from Cochrane it seems. They have just turned into a complete joke. I do wish health professionals around the world could see the reality

    Associations between daily routines and social support among women with chronic fatigue syndrome 2023 Rosenburg et al

    is this seriously research that says 'people who are ill are able to participate less in ADLs & have less social contact' ? Is that seriously what i'm reading? Edited to add: thats a serious question.... i havent the energy to read it all & cant seem to make sense of what i'm reading

    How much did the Covid-19 shielding policy cost in Wales? A Retrospective Cost analysis within the EVITE Immunity study, 2023, Sewell et al

    exactly. There is no appropriate comparison between people who were being tested often and those who werent being tested at all... oh... what a surprise we saw more positive test results in people we did a lot more tests on. Duh. This is Homer Simpson level 'science'. I just despair. At...

    How much did the Covid-19 shielding policy cost in Wales? A Retrospective Cost analysis within the EVITE Immunity study, 2023, Sewell et al

    well obviously since those shielding were the most at risk - deaths & healthcare useage in that population would already be higher than the general polulation, regardless of any pandemic or different behaviour. You could have put them in a sealed bubble & more of them would still have died...
