Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Abandoned, dismissed and gaslighted: there is no excuse for the way ME sufferers have been betrayed | George Monbiot
Changes in guidance and science seem to have little impact on millions of devastated lives. It’s a social crisis playing out behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Today marks 25 years since 9/11. 8 months after the attack, psychiatrist Simon Wessely argued that illness reported around Ground Zero was being wrongly attributed to environmental toxins, suggesting “World Trade Centre Syndrome” was driven by social and psychological factors.

Researchers are gaining new clues about one of the most puzzling legacies of the pandemic. Research from the lab of Yale’s Akiko Iwasaki offers insight into the immune system’s role in long COVID, finding evidence that autoimmune responses may help explain why symptoms persist for some patients.

Yale study links some long COVID patients to autoimmune responses
A new study co-led by Yale scientists reveals that antibodies from some long COVID patients attacked brain and nerve tissues, a finding that could point toward treatments.

You don’t have to have Long Covid to be harmed by Wired’s article suggesting patients have been cured with mind body therapies Patients with chronic illness endure this gaslighting all the time The barriers to care are endless These are real, serious illnesses that need real, tangible treatment

Hey @wired.com, how about interviewing neuroscientists who are really studying the brains of people with #LongCovid? "When the brain gets stuck in a feedback loop of fight or flight" What does that even mean? Patients deserve explanations grounded in biology, not vague buzzwords. #Pseudoscience

The more Long COVID starts to look like a biological disease with biological mechanisms, the more people seem compelled to explain why biology isn’t the interesting part.

1) 🇪🇺 The controversial European project on Long Covid includes a randomized trial on amygdala retraining and online CBT. In a preliminary analysis, both fared no better than usual care.
