Or maybe just has no interest in condition that at most affects 0.4% of the UK population M.E/CFS and CBT and GET and the implications of BPS model all have huge significance to 'us', but it's a big world with lots of other things going on.

I think the jury is still out on how much of the population is affected by the slime. First we have to know what is causing it, and what the various symptoms are.
When the truth comes out, we might actually looking at 50 or 100 illnesses all given different names but with similar symptom sets? From Lyme, to CFS, to Mast cell syndrome, autism, fibro, to IBS, to depression, and on and on and on.....
Maybe the root cause would suggest 20% or more of the worlds population is all suffering the same thing? Maybe some stealthy virus, bacteria, vaccine, which when introduced in a perfect storm, wreak havoc on genes and DNA??
Trying to nail this down and put every issue in a nice neat box may not be the best approach and effectively acts as a roadblock? Of course everything can be doubted if one wants to apply philosophy to everything.
The problem is, we might have a few scientists in the mix who have a different agenda. On top of that, so much deception and information. It's impossible to find solutions when everybody doesn't have the same agenda.
Big pharma's agenda is not the same as my agenda, but they have all the gold and can influence the rules/media/politcians, or hire who they want to represent their views. Who can I afford to hire or lobby?
