I’ve compiled a list of studies and scientific articles on #MECFS & #LongCovid in order of the years published (from 2024 dating back to the 1950s). If you notice any important studies I’ve missed, especially recent ones, please add them below in comments amandafrancey.medium.com/me-cfs-long-co…

Clip of George Monbiot "gobsmacked" by the shocking and outrageous treatment of #MECFS patients, from outright medical neglect, to threats of being sectioned or put in psychiatric wards.

Highly disabled people having to pull an entire new branch of biomedicine up by the bootstraps for hope of a life worth living is an absurd situation And yet here we are... #MECFS #LongCovid #NHS

One of my favorite books is Dostoevsky's The Idiot. In it, he writes "Beauty will save the world." I honestly and truly believe this deep with every fiber of my being. Beauty, grace, compassion, gentleness, hope - these are what will truly save us. (art by Gordon Mortensen)

"Find something you can hold onto and make an island for yourself" - The Thin Red Line. Find something meaningful and make a world out of it. #MECFS #LongCovid

“Someone with #LongCovid will feel overexerted just from sitting. ‘What we saw in people with LC is they were burning.. 30% more energy than someone we would expect.. we were asking them to sit very still &.. their bodies were working really, really hard to maintain that.’”
