There's a programme on Channel 4 tonight at 1930, described thus in the Radio Times: "Richard Butchins reports for Dispatches on a series of deaths, including suicide, by disabled benefits claimants, examining how failings by the Department of Work and Pensions may have contributed. He looks...

Peter? I can't remember, sorry.

(relating to first message) Fair enough, but please, NOT on non-humans. Such studies do not advance medical knowledge.

The reason I think that mine is autoimmune is because I have rarely caught anything since the first few years. So that's over 20 years catching hardly anything. (Will have to return to this later, as I am losing my ability to think.)

Also from Evidence does not justify mandatory vaccines - everyone should have the right to informed choice | The BMJ "There are also no data on groups who might be particularly adversely affected by the vaccine, such as those with, or at risk of autoimmune disorders" I am fairly sure that my...

I couldn't find it - the site was deadly slow for me so I'm not sure whether it was in the article, but I think that there is evidence for reduced blood volume in ME/CFS. I don't think it is usually halved though!

I was particularly struck by the article accessible from that one: Comparing SARS-CoV-2 natural immunity to vaccine-induced immunity: reinfections versus breakthrough infections | medRxiv "Conclusions This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger...

Life-limiting? This means that it shortens life.

I haven't looked at this yet, but in the last 5 years or so my ability to think is very impaired most mornings and early afternoons, so it will make a large difference what time I am tested.

Mitochondria cells? Mitochondria are organelles within cells!

I don't know, but they do, for example Simon Wessely...

Someone representing South Africa is saying that no one is very ill from it (yet). Here's a link: Covid: South Africa 'punished' for detecting new Omicron variant - BBC News The head of the South African Medical Association told the BBC that the cases found so far in South Africa - where only...

I'm not sure if this is it, as the BBC have annoyingly-few dates attached to articles, but I think this article appeared quite recently: How to banish brain fog and boost energy this winter - BBC Food I was rather worried when I saw it, as it seemed to be generalising on a specific problem...

I have swollen neck glands all the time these days, for the last several years.
