Professor Chris Ponting on how findings from the largest genetic study in #MECFS show “there is an organic disease called ME”. “We’ve had letters from GPs saying we have changed their minds” Clip from Hope 4 ME & Fibro NI Collaboration

As George Monbiot says in this clip @davetuller1.bsky.social’s work was “absolutely crucial” in helping him understand the problems with #MEcfs research when writing his seminal article. I’ve just donated to David’s crowdfunding campaign to help keep his work going.

6 years since the first UK lockdown. #LongCovid hasn’t gone away. ONS estimates from 2024 suggest ~2 million people in England & Scotland. Every infection carries a ~1 in 50 chance of developing long Covid that could last anything from four weeks to being effectively permanent.

Short German TV clip. #MECFS cases have doubled since 2020, many linked to #LongCovid. Patients describe lives wiped out overnight, years housebound or bedridden, and having to choose between showering or playing with their child.

“It’s been devastating… it’s capsized my life as a mother.” Jane had to give up her 18yr career to care for her child with #LongCovid MP Jo Platt, who has #LongCovid and #MECFS warns we’ve stopped counting cases so don’t even know the extent of the problem. Clip from ITV News.

Emma has #LongCovid and slowly built up to working 30 hours a week over 3 years but had to take sick leave. She then got COVID again and is back to square one. Reinfection risks making Long Covid worse.

Channel 4 coverage of the new £4.75M UK government funding for SequenceME. “For decades, many people with ME have been told it is in their heads… But now, a new project will look for the answer in our very DNA, with the world’s first genomic study into ME.” #MECFS

Clip from the Death Clock Podcast - Dr Leonard Jason explains why healthcare professionals often interpret post-acute infection syndromes as “psychological” — and how patients are traumatised not only by the illness itself, but by people’s reactions to it as well.

“The injustice of it, I couldn’t believe it.” Former Team GB rower @oonaghcousins.bsky.social talking about the #MECFS “scandal” where patients were told they were deconditioned and needed Graded Exercise and CBT. It is the “opposite of what they needed” and that legacy still runs “super deep”.

Jo Platt MP, who lives with #MECFS and #LongCovid, told UK Parliament the COVID-19 Inquiry found Long Covid was repeatedly dismissed despite affecting nearly 2 million people. She asked the Government what steps it will take to act on the Inquiry’s findings, 23 April 2025.
