    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Don't forget that is was the "banality of evil" tweet that got Mike Godwin interested: The series of tweets Mike Godwin posted after doing his research have got very jumbled up and are now hard to follow on Twitter, but this is the main one: For any newcomers, here's Dave's blog about it...

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

    NICE looked at outcomes from various non pharmacological trials, with 89% rated very low quality and the rest rate low quality. Did anyone manage to work out which outcomes related to which trials? @Valerie Eliot Smith are you following this thread? Do you think there could be a legal case...

    This reminded me of Clare Gerada on BBC Breakfast: Meanwhile, @Caroline Struthers has uploaded the full interview to YouTube: Remember you can give it a thumbs down.

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Good blog from Valerie Eliot Smith on that BMJ blog: https://valerieeliotsmith.com/2021/02/01/professor-garner-the-bmj-and-me-alarming-flip-flop-on-recovery-from-long-covid/ NB Reading Valerie’s blog made me realise I was wrong to say He was actually put in touch touch with the Norway...

    From: https://www.healthcarehubris.com/post/health-politics-in-action-professor-garner-s-change-of-heart-on-long-covid-and-me-cfs: Reading the above made me realise the similarities between what PG wrote and what Fiona Fox wrote in that bizarre article when she was a leading member of the...

    Obviously “criticising” should be “criticised”:

    I’ve uploaded a video of the the whole interview here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/21888ojqavgjxcr/Video 28-01-2021, 14 17 39.mov?dl=0 if anyone wants to put it on YouTube and share, please feel free. At the beginning the the interview Naga Munchetty says: “We can speak to two people who...

    I’ve put these on the Trish Greenhalgh thread but sharing here too as they relate to the CG interview above:

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    I wrote a long post about this in another thread: https://www.s4me.info/threads/possibility-of-me-or-pvfs-after-covid-19-long-covid.14074/page-168#post-318718 Yes, this is one of the reasons why I was disappointed that the GWAS isn’t including people who’ve recovered.

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Maybe we need a separate thread for Clare Gerada? Eleanor Morgan is an author and “assistant psychologist” who writes for the Guardian among other papers and magazines: Meanwhile views of the video clip I posted are up to nearly 20k (117k impressions) and seem to be growing exponentially. The...

    I’ll just leave this here... And in case it gets deleted, I’ve uploaded a screenshot too. NB I didn’t threaten to complain to the BBC, I complained to the BBC. [Edit to add: I wonder how long it will be before she drops the “death threats” bomb.]

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    You can only complain to Ofcom if you have already complained to the BBC and received a response that you are not satisfied with. I’ve submitted the following complaint to the BBC via its website. There is a 2000 character limit so I had to edit what I originally wrote. Details of the programme...

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    Gerada says: “I don’t know what the pathophysiology is but I certainly had problems with my muscles.” There seems to be an inconsistency here. If she subscribes to the CBT/GET models, why does she appear to rule out the possibility that she was suffering from unhelpful illness beliefs? There is...

    Paul Garner on Long Covid and ME/CFS - BMJ articles and other media.

    I’m wondering whether to submit a formal complaint to the BBC. @Jonathan Edwards, please can you list a few conditions other than ME which are unequivocally not made better by exercise? Would it be OK to quote you if I submit a complaint?

    George Monbiot on ME/CFS, PACE, BPS and Long Covid

    But, under a capitalist system, it isn’t. If Shell or Esso were able to make more money by doing something other than selling oil they would have a legal responsibility to their shareholders to do that. Eventually all oil companies will stop selling oil. Some will go bust and others will...
