The CDC's new mask (or unmask) guidance means I am supposed to trust that people who for over 14 months have been denying the science and not taking precautions will now be responsible and honest about their vaccination status?

Actually the handouts for healthcare providers are new. (And apparently there will be equivalents in Spanish "soon".)

To be clear - this quote is only part of the letter.

(Is it wrong that I cringe when I see the name Chalder on an article? Even seeing the last name only....)

@Kalliope - I don't think there is a translation.

More women survive acute COVID-19. But their LongCOVID is too often dismissed as not worth addressing.

I can't find their description/definition of PEM though they say 53.7% have it.

Additional background - The group that conducted this systematic review for the CDC is the same one that did the systematic review for AHRQ before the P2P meeting in 2014. https://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/products/chronic-fatigue/research-protocol...

The document on treatment is likely to take a while since CDC hasn't finished its review of the treatment evidence review they contracted for. (It is due out at any time for public comment.)

Not every ME patient gets PEM from cognitive exertion. (Though most PwME I know, do get PEM from cognitive exertion.) I suspect that measuring cognitive exertion is not as convincing (visible) as physical exertion and might be more open to

I wonder if they are doing pre/post cognitive assessments also as an outcome.

The references in this article are quite comprehensive.

Eligibility criteria lists meeting SEID criteria as opposed to (for instance) having more focused criteria for this study.

@Creekside some of the people who are qualified to do a 2 day CPET for PwME will do cognitive assessments before and after testing to add to reports. This assesses (of course) both cognitive and physical impact of exertion. I don't think there's been enough work on cognitive exertion and PEM...

Would there be a point in including people who are hypovolemic AFTER exercise?
