Why are the #MECFS patient community concerned for #LongHaulers who might try to exercise themselves back to health?

Watch these two videos that look at the evidence against Graded Exercise Therapy for the often post-viral ME/CFS.

#LongCovid #PACEtrial

dialogues-mecfs.co.uk/films/graded-e…
Independent re-analysis of the the largest trial that claims benefits of GET and CBT.

"The modest treatment effects obtained on self-report measures in the PACE trial do not exceed what could be reasonably accounted for by participant reporting biases."

bmcpsychology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
A 2017 analysis of patient surveys by @keithgeraghty shows GET is rated negatively by the majority of patients (54%–74%), while pacing "is the most favoured treatment with the lowest negative response rate and the highest reported benefit (44%–82%)."
