Dr @binitakane.bsky.social talking about #MECFS and the lack of research, specialists and services on yesterday’s BBC Radio 5 Live.

Excellent discussion on ME & Beth Dobbin that looks at:
🔹why ME has been dismissed
🔹 why it's seen as psychological
🔹 the sickest patients have no NHS care.

@binitakane.bsky.socialThank you George. This is the absolute reality of what patients are going through - it’s great to see mainstream journalism on this.
@georgemonbiot.bsky.socialReposted by @binitakane.bsky.socialHere's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2

@binitakane.bsky.socialEvery now and again it’s great for clinicians and researchers to meet and ‘chew the cud’. Fantastic to see Prof Chris Ponting and meet some of his incredible team in Edinburgh today.
@binitakane.bsky.socialHi George - happy to chat, I’m still seeing patients being offered outdated advice from ME clinics sadly.
@binitakane.bsky.socialBrilliant 30min talk by David Osborne talking about PPE, the catastrophic failures to protect frontline workers during the pandemic, reflections from Module 3 of the COVID inquiry and lessons for the future.
@binitakane.bsky.socialIn the most incredible company tonight at The Inclusive Awards. Rather shocked but proud to be named in the UK Diversity Power List 24/25 😱
