I hope this is gonna be the takeaway message from this pandemic. We psychologize problems that we don't fully understand. It needs to be said often enough in public spaces that it comes ingrained with the general public. We psychologize problems we don't fully understand.

Nice. Still a bit sceptical about Raaijmakers being involved in one of the 6 projects with his links to COFFI, but his program looks good on first glance. Let's hope the entire thing yields some results.

I think government usually changes through outside pressure, rarely from within. Wherever that government might be located. The small wins, the advocacy, the new pieces coming out in media about infection-associated chronic illness all contribute to that. Maybe the thing that's contributing...

Those markers look really familiar from somewhere.

Granted, but I think Bernie Sanders more or less leads the progressive caucus and is a hugely popular figure in the US with two semi-successful presidential runs under his belt. He's not a PoC, but he has been fighting for civil rights, equality and more from the start of his career...

Correlation, causation....

Lines drawn on a bin.

The old causation switcheroo.

I think he talked about the phage test developed by Leicester university in this talk. Which isn't to say that's what he's gonna use, but if I had to guess it'd be symptomology + that test.

Mind-regulation electro-accupuncture. I think I've seen this in torture movies.

How can we fight this?

He can apologize every day and twice on Sunday and I wouldn't care. I would rather have him use his position of influence to effect change.

More clutching at straws I'd imagine. Trying to sow a little discord etc. It isn't taking roots anymore, it seems.

I feel there's a fair bit of gatekeeping going on with regards to LC with people pointing each other to posts they can "attack".

Didn't Hanson do a metabolite study post-exercise?

I'm discussing the paper on a Dutch forum and it honestly feels like I'm talking directly to one of them. The same bullshit about psychosomatics not being explored. 30 years of research yielded nothing. No one says psychological diseases aren't real, yada yada yada. Even brings up PACE as an...

https://nos.nl/artikel/2503701-long-covid-is-lichamelijk-en-zit-niet-tussen-de-oren-toont-onderzoek-aan If it's on nos.nl I reckon it's getting circulation in the newspapers too. I'll try to get it onto some large forums in the Netherlands as well. The more people read it and the more often...

Nice to see good articles from the guardian for a change. Wish ME was included in it somewhere too, but can't have everything(yet).

That would be a great outcome of a terrible time.
