We’re going to invest in ME which is just south of Cambridge and I’m wondering if anybody over there would like to hang out with us and figure out something interesting to do for a couple days afterwards starting July 1.

I went to the Irish ME/CFS Association Dr Speight event in Dublin but I wouldn't be able for all of it so just came in for the tea/coffee/water and biscuits chat part, as the talk was recorded. Here I am with Dr Speight at the end of the night. #MEcfs #CFS #PwME

For more of these billboards go to the GoFundMe page of @AaronCa11 Forget awareness weeks, forget articles illustrated by models with hands stuck to their heads. This is REAL advocacy. #ME #LongCovid

I just talked to an epidemiologist working on pandemic preparedness, particularly modeling how humans respond. I pointed out that Long Covid should be included and laid out why. She grasped the significance of what I was saying but knew almost none of what I said beforehand.
