@nickyproctor.bsky.socialThanks for fighting the good fight. Capacity building is likely to fail if researchers are unsure any funding will be available for their work. Making them compete against diseases that have decades of prior work is setting them up to fail. We need to follow the route Germany took and ringfence
Show PostThanks to Dr Sanjay Gupta's fb feed for this cartoon. #pwME #LongCovidME

Show PostI'm re-reading Susan Sontag's 'Illness as metaphor' written in 1978. It's about quacks psychologising biological disease.
