    Office of National Statistics: Prevalence of ongoing symptoms following coronavirus (COVID-19) infection in the UK: Updates

    Maybe those with LC weren’t well enough to be seen in person but found it easier to participate, possibly at their own pace, online. Perhaps there’s a time factor with people taking considerable time to understand that they aren’t getting well and have LC especially if they have had...

    United Kingdom: News from Forward-ME Group

    The utter stupidity of questionnaires as tools for diagnosis. A lighthearted look at some questionnaires misused in ME/CFS research

    HRA (Health Research Authority) & Bristol University's report on E. Crawley's CFS/ME Studies over registration to the Research Ethics Committee (2019)

    Brazen disregard, would be very interesting to hear what the HRA have to say about this failure to comply with their report given they had obviously gone out of their way to make the minimum possible findings to limit the impact on Crawley.

    The chronification of post-COVID condition associated with neurocognitive symptoms, functional impairment and (...), 2022, Nehme et al
