>As was the case with the experts’ open letter to Secretary Sebelius — first published on September 23, 2013, and then updated on October 25, 2013 — the October 28, 2013, advocates’ letter now has been updated with additional signatures and re-sent to Secretary Sebelius and other government officials.
>An additional 105 active U.S. and international advocates signed on to support our experts, for a total of 171 active advocates. No signatures were withdrawn from the original version of the letter.
>This is an overwhelming show of support by advocates for our experts. With virtually no exceptions, the only prominent advocates who declined to sign the letter were several journalists (who could not participate for professional reasons), the current leaders of the CFIDS Association of America (CAA) and of PANDORA, and a few other individuals with particularly close connections to those two organizations.
