One of the most favourable mass-media UK publications I've seen.
Goes into PACE data release, overclaiming for PACE, tribunal, and rituximab.
Thanks to all involved!
There is at this time one comment by someone touting the party line of PACE et al.

Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is a debilitating condition that can leave those affected bedridden for years. It's linked with as many as 60 symptoms, the most common being a feeling of constant exhaustion — 'like a dead battery'.
The condition first reached mainstream consciousness in the Eighties following outbreaks in New York and Nevada. By then it was officially known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
For a time, it seemed everyone knew someone who was affected by it, and it was derisively dubbed 'yuppie flu' because it seemed typically to affect young professionals.
For years there's been a long-running and bitter debate between doctors and patients about its cause and how to treat it.
