@colleencaleshu@TomKindlon 1. Attacks from pathogens new to person.
2. Increase in successful replication by pathogens already present, such as may be caused by weakening of immune defenses.
@MTackCVS I thought Montoya/valganciclovir and Ampligen positive but committee majority talked down improvement by counting arithmetic improvement rather than percentage which was significant.
@davidtuller1@GeorgeMonbiot @kuriozorinj The Guardian has been inexcusably fact-free in publishing essay after essay from biopsychosocial school psychiatrists whose livelihoods depend on gaslighting ME patients and serious medical researchers versus one terribly clever and witty defense of reason from George Monbiot.
@AliceOutThere Hillary, I think Pubmed was not so globalist pre-1985 or so. More papers in British Library and probably other foreign sources and languages though still small numbers v. later. Now English so universal for academia!!
Two Facebook posts in 1 week from people with #type1diabetes undergoing surgical procedures where personnel didn't understand that #T1D requires 24/7 #insulin no matter what. In one case, the individual was actually taken off insulin and ended up in DKA. #medtwitter#endotwitter
NHS is amassing data on "long Covid" patients that is said to be pointing towards flaws in immune recovery. Too soon to be sure. But we need to value such NHS capability - - also responsible for spotting lifesaving role for Methotrexate -- and block privatisers now.

@oslersweb@OnlyEnnui@marilyngavrano1 Iverson's CFIDS Association wouldn't have done that. Kim takeover took everything away from patients. She was plant by outside to prevent everything for patients including your truth.
@DrMaureenHanson That's not the case Maureen. You have to know the history of ME in America. Something dark and terrible was unleashed to crush us over and over.
@MECFSNews@AlanLevinovitz@VICE NIH preferences for funding hypothesis testing over
straightforward empirical work. Anyway that's the prime excuse they use for turning down grant applications from OMF superstar scientists like Ron Davis (AKA Whitney Dafoe's dad.)
