    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    I've rescheduled for the week after next, feeling too unwell with viral symptoms and headache this week. It's easy enough to do that on the accurx booking link in the text I got, but I think you need to give >24 hours notice so I had to decide today. Hopefully better luck with the new...

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    Sorry to hear this Sisyphus, and from others in the forum who’ve had bad post-jab reactions. I started feeling more or less back to baseline after 7 or 8 weeks, except still have increased heart palpitations, that started a few hours after getting the vaccine, and still haven’t resolved. So I...

    "Exercise in a pill" - potential for ME/CFS?

    Can anyone find this article in the print edition? I can’t so far - the date of the piece doesn’t correspond with magazine publication dates. If it’s in the magazine, then one could access the article with a library app.

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    There have been several reports of hypersensitivity reactions to the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna). Some people suspect one of the ingredients in the lipid layer encapsulating the mRNA called polyethylene glycol (PEG) could be implicated. These reactions are extremely rare and, if they...

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    That would seem to be the case, but are we sure? It would be something of a major disadvantage to the AZ/ Oxford vaccine platform if it’s an intervention that can only be deployed once, in any individual. Oxford and AstraZeneca will make a new Covid vaccine by AUTUMN...

    Who is Simon Wessely?

    Nothing to worry about, just a photo opportunity when Joe Biden visited a mental health event in London. The ‘if not now, when’ comment is ‘if I don’t post this pic of me with the then future POTUS, right after he’s been inaugurated, when will there be a better opportunity to express my smugness?’

    Covid-19 vaccines and vaccinations

    The Pfizer press release reports that protection is achieved 28 days after initiation of the first dose of vaccine. Whereas you can develop covid within a few days of exposure, so the virus wins that race...

    The biology of coronavirus COVID-19 - including research and treatments

    I'd like to know the answer on this too. Perhaps the adenovirus vector is sufficiently immunogenic that an additional adjuvant isn't needed??

    BPS attempts at psychologizing Long Covid

    The biology of coronavirus COVID-19 - including research and treatments

    Is there any reason to believe that the dysregulated (upregulated) RNase-L pathway that has been reported in ME/CFS would make an mRNA vaccine less effective? https://me-pedia.org/wiki/Ribonuclease_L

    Case report of somebody with severe ME having observable problems with her eyes from overusing them
