I haven't read it yet, but I think the title and the author's name tell you basically everything about it.

Haven't similar articles by Landmark been published recently? It's dated today and I seem to remember her managing to publish two articles arguing the same nonsense. Or maybe it's just re-published? Science Norway not living up to its name, arguing weird ideology like this.

It would be far better to drop all the psychosomatic nonsense. Now those are harmful diagnoses based on no real disease processes. What a total waste to have experts be so misguided, even worse to have institutions that enable it.

There's a brief description on imdb, no mention of ME/CFS:
