I've written some of my thoughts about the new reports and guidelines on ME/CFS that have been published over the past 5 years. They seem to form a new consensus, one where PEM is a required criterium for ME/CFS, where GET is no longer recommended and CBT is proposed as a supportive treatment...

Western medical authorities and the WHO have repeatedly stated that the populace do not need to wear masks or respirators, and that for the general public these offer no protection from coronavirus. The WHO say: Source: here It's rather annoying when scientists hide behind deceptive...
