Beth Mazur smiling a big beautiful smile
It is with deep sadness that we share with you that we lost one of our heroes and champions of ME yesterday. Beth Mazur passed away after battling ME for 15 years. She was a selfless beacon of hope & light in our community. She demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the cause.

Does the risk of getting long Covid increase each time you get reinfected?
"It's very clear in our data that reinfection contributes additional risk of long Covid," says epidemiologist Ziyad Al-Aly.
Good data is hard to get.
"Anecdotally, from the clinics we know that some people come back and say, 'I feel better' or 'I feel I improved.'
If you dig a little bit deeper, they did not get back to their baseline; they adjusted their baseline.''

πExcellent article in Bloomberg financial press on the reality of Long Covid
πWe know it's real but it's finally good to see the narrative take hold in the media.
πEven though we've seen the counter attack from the minimisers this week.
πThey must be worried!
