ME/CFS Expert Leonard Jason's New York Times Q&A.
What’s strikingly different about this illness is that the majority of people not only have to deal with a particularly debilitating health problem, they also have to deal with the stigma and societal reaction and disbelief and illegitimacy and that is crushing. The epidemiology done by the CDC was atrocious. The prevalence research was very poorly done. The tests they were using were inappropriate and had a real bias for psychiatric morbidity.
