Lotte has lived with #LongCOVID for 6 years. At her worst she spent 22 hrs a day in bed and was unable to hold a conversation. She worries about her future as the Dutch government doesn’t treat it as a priority and not enough is being done to help her take part in society again.

BBC Wales Today. Carer and campaigner Rob Messenger, who has two children with #MECFS in their 30s, says there are no specialists to turn to and describes care for Severe and Very Severe ME in Wales as a ‘desert’.

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.

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.

Tomos is bedbound with Severe #MECFS. His mother says at his worst he looked as if he was “paralysed”, “a dead weight”, unable to open his eyes, talk or move. Clip from BBC Wales Today.

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.

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.

The CDC made a public awareness ad about #MECFS in 2007. I’m not aware of a similar public health campaign since, despite increasing numbers linked to long Covid and the lack of awareness that exercise can make people worse.

Dominic LeBlanc on US trade talks: "The Mexicans are beginning a formal technical conversation. We'll get to that point as well, but ... we're not prepared to concede a whole bunch of things to find that there's another list of things that we're supposed to give the United States."

$1.5 trillion for the military? 🤯 That budget is massive, but imagine if we pivoted that towards universal healthcare. We could fully fund primary care, eliminate medical debt, and lower prescription costs for every single person. 🏥💊 ​Is it time to prioritize our health over hardware? #health

Why are you waiting until your relationship is destroyed? You don't do that in any area of your life. Don't wait until there's crisis because maintenance is easier than repair.

We learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company.

An interesting woke take on the misogynist conservative men who dress as women. Also possible TERF projection since this mirrors what they say about trans women being a parody of women 2

What’s deep water solo? Free solo is a type of climbing with no safety ropes. Deep water solo, also called Psycho Bloc, is free soloing over water. That way, falling hurts a little less! In Cairn’s free upcoming summer DLC, On The Trail, you can try it for yourself!
