Cort's new blog (would someone like to start a thread?) is about the recent Montreal conference, and the conference announcement that there is low energy production in white blood cells, with a ceiling effect. If so then this suggests ME is an immune disorder as well as anything else, but not the kind researchers are used to. Such a disorder might lead to big issues with reactivating pathogens, especially the herpes family of viruses.

I hope someone can compile a TL;DR version of it!
