What passes for journalism (on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) at Forbes



Julian Vigo on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:
"Take for instance the illness Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), where researchers and practitioners have been regularly harassed and threatened should resultant research suggest anything unpopular. Simon Wessely, professor of epidemiological and liaison psychiatry at King’s College School of Medicine in London, has been under attack for many years by those in the CFS community who decry any suggestion of a psychiatric approach to this condition. While CFS is a highly politicized condition, Wesseley suffered death threats for his work in this field because activists refuse that certain aspects of this condition frame CFS as psychiatric. And CFS is not the only health condition which is accompanied by a vocal, even aggressive, patient-advocate lobby."

Consciousness of Guilt in Science and Medicine (From Perplexity A.I.)

We asked Perplexity A.I. to make the argument that Castleman's Disease undermines the nosology, epidemiology, and virology of AIDS.

If the establishment decides that the nosology of AIDS is wrong and HIV is not the cause of AIDS could that be considered a Black Swan event?

Are any endogenous retroviruses reactivated in AIDS and do any of them act like superantigens?
