    Whitney Dafoe Updates

    I listened to the Rep. Raskin talk today—glad he is still an advocate. The whole segment was recorded and will be posted on YT. I think they said that about 1000 people registered to do the lobbying tomorrow—that’s encouraging.

    Prevalence of (ME/CFS) in three regions of England: a repeated cross-sectional study in primary care, 2011, Lacerda,Nacul
