I've been hearing about adhesive foam strips which are used to block draughts (or drafts?), but I don't understand how these work. How do they not stop the door from opening and closing?

This didn't used to be an issue, but I've been noticing recently more & more that there's light coming in at the top of my bedroom door and at one side. (I need to have my bedroom in total blackout). I think maybe as time has gone by, the door has become less snugly fitting in the frame? Like...

Yes, but the headline implies that it's going to happen (when really it's just something that they're hoping to achieve, which may actually be unlikely to happen by autumn). Headlines like that will lead people to think "oh it's all going to be okay soon" and therefore take more risks.

"Plan for pills to treat virus at home by autumn" implies that it's going to happen.

Financial Times is more cautious: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.ft.com/content/72050a34-8bab-488f-9777-1d131e583274

Have you all seen this? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-56823627.amp The headline is very irresponsible IMO. Anyway what do you think? Are they likely to be able to make antiviral pills for covid? If that's feasible, then why are they only starting to look into it now?

OH MY LORD. This is a game changer. Not sure how I failed to find this setting for 2 years. But I've got the ipad in grayscale now, and reduce white point, and wow that's so much less stimulating.

Question is in the title of the thread. Needs to be ones which are available on the Apple app store. If I could "turn the colour off", that would be even better. On my (Android) phone I am able to put it into grayscale. Obviously I am already using the inbuilt screen dimming function, I've...

Paul Garner is a **** , but can we please not make fun of him for reacting with anxiety when he first developed long covid? I'm sure every single one of us felt anxious when we first developed ME - anxiety is a very natural reaction to such a confusing and scary illness. Indeed many of us...

Actually, quite a few of us do this, at least in the early stages, in an attempt to figure out what activities we can do without triggering PEM, how long we can do them for etc. It's not hypochondria. And doctors call our behaviour hypochondria because they don't understand (a) how confusing...

Responding to article in post 665 The article was awful long before it started talking about covid or chronic fatigue.

Michael sharpe has tweeted out his old “ME and the perils of internet activism” guardian article.

I tried luteolin, didn't do anything to help me.

Just curious when that was?

No, he's thinking of his career

Where is Pfizer being given out?? Most people seem to be being given AZ.

Sounds like the sort of thing I would do if I were in charge lol, I'm always in denial when I'm running behind with something (and I am talking about my past life as Healthy Sarah, here)

Someone mentioned this in an ME Facebook group today, and people were suggesting songs that he could select.

I had a covid test and it came back negative. I feel I have looked into the barrel of the Covid gun and disarmed it. You should all listen to people who have tested negative for covid, then you'll see that Covid is nothing to worry about. /s

"ME/CFS Tomorrow" strikes again!
