Not sure how widely read. Skimming through seems pretty good. I think it's paywalled but thread includes screenshots. Ah, I see, the author is a pharmacist, that's why it's this publication.

Honestly it's become annoying how common it ends up like this, straight up admitting that it's just their belief. Wessely said the same a few weeks ago. They plainly admit it, the people claiming we have beliefs are even admitting that those are nothing but their beliefs. And it doesn't make a...

I don't think that's possible without an actual coherent understanding of what they are. It's clearly mostly said by people who don't want it to be true but don't have actual reasons other than that it's just tradition to dismiss us. It's a taboo subject so it remains mostly unspoken...

So Long Covid has basically opened up the floodgates for even more open hostility. Are the newspapers just milking this or is this narrative being pushed by authorities? Most of the claims made in this last one are farcical and obviously nonsense, what kind of responsibility does a newspaper...

Sorry, no.

Aside from the fact that there is plenty, this is literally one of the most famous logical fallacies. Although of course the fact that it's false makes it even worse. It's getting seriously hard to keep any hope seeing how so many people are dedicated to making sure we stay in this dystopian...

Betteridge's law of headlines strikes again!

Another genuine parody of bad science. It's annoying that it's usually stuff like research on fruit flies that get named when it comes to pointless research. This may as well be an actual parody and it wouldn't make any difference. The one thing they can't possibly imagine to be relevant is the...

After more than 20 months, French medical authorities in Occitanie have finally decided to... offer the same failed model that has failed everywhere: rehabilitation and physical reeducation. "Listening to sick people", uh uh. Still zero clue what LC is, just not paying attention.

"Long Covid? Oh, there are clinics for that, it's very rare" Although it's hard to say whether it's bad that such a clinic closes. But it looks like the initial funding, most of which seems to have been spent on unrelated things in general practice, has run out and health care services got...

It's going to be found eventually that none of those treatment models do any better than lighting a candle, uh? As in every single one of them that are based on rehabilitation or psychosocial stuff. Because life is a biochemical machine, not some spiritual force affected by wishes and dreams...

Despite decades of offensive contempt and hostility, all of it lies and mindless caricatures borne entirely out of ignorance, it should be said that it was in 2021 that probably the most offensive display of disrespect towards us was published, nearly two years into the biggest outbreak of this...

None of this even comes close to make any sense. It's what gets me, how no one actually stands up and say: "OK, enough, this is a word salad of such inanity I cannot accept such low standards, this is unacceptable I would not even decide what cat food to buy based on such wacky nonsense and we...

And what about strength, dexterity and sagacity? None of those "variables" deal with anything in real life, it makes no sense to associate any of those things, they're not even the product of asking about objective things, they're all vague and ambiguous. They may as well be Dungeons & Dragons...

Whatever this is... not even gonna bother reading, mostly to keep track. "I believe". OK, don't. Beliefs have no place in health care or medical practice. Also, uh, "post-pandemic". Whatever, some people truly live a universe of their own. Edit: having seen a few quotes since, it's even...

Isn't there an organization that does something like that? Enforce compliance? To at least make the process as streamlined as possible. Without someone wielding a hammer to force compliance, there is no incentive for the clinics to bother, they can simply do this right here and pretend it's good...

Honestly, yeah. The only real progress happening now is from cutting edge research and done by PhDs in the form of useful technologies. The rest of medicine is paralyzed by weird traditions and myths, seems content with performative rituals. If anything it seems to be getting worse, the golden...

Still the same. I saw a comment yesterday from a physician who was asked about LC and said "oh, there are clinics for that, it's very rare". No wonder most physicians don't see LC in their practice, especially specialists, it never reaches most of them. Meanwhile, the "clinics":

The name of the show does not inspire confidence in how they will handle this, but that could be misleading. Then again the producers of Afflicted said the same thing.

Same energy. Also waiting for this stuff to be produced by others is how we get hot garbage like Afflicted. The only benefit of an empty space is that if you're first, you can occupy it in full. The rest of the world is sleepwalking through this, might as well take advantage.
