Petition to the ABC about Norman Swan's comments on ME/CFS and Long Covid

[Sean]

Somebody has started a petition asking the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation, our version of the BBC) to address Norman Swan's comments on ME/CFS and Long Covid.

The ABC is Swan's long term employer, and his primary platform (mainly as the weekly Health Report).

Stop the ABC from broadcasting misinformation about ME/CFS

It's a great petition, the explanation is very good. I hope people will support it.

When I click I get this page: https://www.change.org/p/stop-the-abc-from-broadcasting-misinformation-about-me-cfs

but it assumes that I have already signed and says "Take the next step". I've tried refreshing the page but it's still the same.

Yes, it must think you've already signed. Maybe clear your cookies and restart your browser?

An advantage of change.org petitions is they accept international signatories.

I think I've signed it now by using Bing - Firefox kept showing the 'already signed' page.

Is there any way to view the signatures of people who haven't left comments?
