I need writers for @RealLastStand to help debunk popular narratives with data and facts. Any topic is fair game. The goal is to dispel pseudoscience and ideological nonsense. With over 45K subscribers, your work will reach a large audience. And I pay my writers!
Wow. If 400 million people have Long Covid then 50%, or 200 million people, have ME. This is up from the 24 million pwME pre-pandemic. If people with ME had not been neglected & dismissed for decades, hundreds of millions would have effective treatments or not gotten it at all.

LDN doesn’t do that.
Really happy that Ziyad’s citation count will increase with this paper—is there any other point to this paper? 30 self-citations here—great job Ziyad!
400 million people with “Long Covid”. At least they didn’t claim that 400 billion people had Long Covid, because that would be a lot!
