@exceedhergrasp1.bsky.socialWe've seen a distinct drop in interest in these conditions as people have memory-holed COVID; they'd like to forget infection-associated chronic conditions, but they're impacting everyone, including kids. I'm the Scientific Director at #MEAction, and I advocate for #MECFS, #LongCOVID, & other IACCs.
@judithstark.bsky.socialWe at #MEAction Scotland campaigned against NHS Glasgow offering the Lightning Process and were told last year that they had stopped.

@exceedhergrasp1.bsky.social@meactnet.bsky.social#MEAction prepared comments & will send a detailed letter to NIAID by email.
Our central concern is that the proposal describes expected benefits but does not provide enough concrete information to determine whether eliminating DCR will preserve clinical research capacity & scientific continuity.
@meactnet.bsky.socialNIH UPDATE: NIAID has released a proposal to eliminate its Division of Clinical Research (DCR) & move the division’s programs and responsibilities into other parts of the Institute.
#MEAction has sent a detailed letter to NIAID by email in response to the proposal.

@meactnet.bsky.socialLast week, #MEAction staff Ben HusuBorger and Therese Russo spoke with a STAT journalist, Isabella Cueto, for more than an hour, providing background for her article about the new Medicaid tiers. @isabellacueto.bsky.social www.statnews.com/2026/09/11/m...
@exceedhergrasp1.bsky.socialArticle incoming from #MEAction on this, but for now I need y'all to know that while the comment box isn't marked at all, it has a character or word limit: about 4000 characters (or 525 words) seems to be it.
Just so you don't write a huge thing and end up chopping it down, like I did.
