NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya says patients with ME/CFS, long COVID, vaccine injury and chronic Lyme are often gaslit and told their symptoms are psychological, making them feel crazy. He’s told NIH staff he wants to invest in finding real answers for these conditions.

“I don’t think I can think of another condition that would be treated this way.” Dr Anna Brooks, Liggins Institute. A powerful opening to Zoe Madden-Smith’s award-winning RE:News documentary on #MECFS

Gabby Rudge-Cox caught Covid in 2021 and has been diagnosed with #LongCovid #MECFS #Fibromyalgia and #POTS. “I'm gradually getting worse and it just scares me that if it continues to decline, life is going to get even smaller.”

Clip 3 BBC Politics North: Luke Akehurst MP says it’s “shocking” that #LongCovid services are being closed when ~2 million people live with the condition and about half consider themselves disabled. Covid is “not yesterday’s problem”, it is still causing events to be cancelled.

Clip from a WDR German TV report: Pascal Hilgruber developed ME/CFS following a Covid infection or vaccination. He now spends 80–90% of his day in bed and says being able to go to the toilet on his own feels like an achievement.

Caroline Kingdon speaking about functional impairment and mortality in #MECFS Biobank research has shown people with ME/CFS to be more functionally impaired than people with MS. And between 2001–2016, ME/CFS was mentioned on 88 death certificates in England and Wales.

Professor Chris Ponting on the 116 blood molecule differences his team found in people with #MECFS “This is not a psychological disease” people did not alter their blood molecules just to “spook the psychiatrists”. Clip from Hope 4 ME & Fibro NI 2026

Really good explanation of Post-Exertional Malaise (PEM), the hallmark symptom of ME/CFS, and why pacing activities is so important. Clip from German TV science program.

Dr @binitakane.bsky.social explains how a theory that #MECFS is caused by deconditioning and a fear of exercise permeated medicine and framed the illness as psychological. This led to the patients being neglected, gaslit, and some would say abused. Causing huge trauma for the community.

BBC Morning Live addresses complaints after Dr Oscar Duke said that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome was “probably the best way to describe” the illness. Feedback from viewers outlines how it trivialises the illness, is just one symptom, and it does not reflect the reality of #MECFS.

New inflation numbers just came out, and they’re clear as day. Trump is screwing us with his foolish, illegal war in Iran. Food, fuel, and energy prices are through the roof. Mainers deserve better than this.

Dave Min: "Pam Bondi claimed documents related to any decisions to prosecute or not were being withheld. There's a reason we don't have the smoking guns, the videos, the witness interviews, because they're claiming that's all privileged. It's a sham. They're not answering any questions."
