📢 Today is #WorldMEDay, a day dedicated to learning about, raising awareness of, and campaigning around #MECFS.
This year, the @WorldMEAlliance campaign aims to ensure the harmful effect of pushing harder is the first thing that comes to mind when someone hears about M.E.

For #pwME, PEM can be a devastating consequence of trying to engage with the world, significantly limiting their ability to participate in daily life. The impact can be so severe for some that it can result in a loss of independence, requiring them to receive full-time care.
It's now estimated that 17-30M people worldwide live with M.E., but it's believed to have doubled since the #COVID19 pandemic began. Shockingly, there are now 65M people living with #LongCOVID, with 50% meeting the diagnostic criteria for M.E. & a growing number experiencing PEM.
Hear what @SonyaChowdhury, the CEO of Action for M.E. and the Chair of the @WorldMEAlliance, has to say on this #WorldMEDay: ow.ly/XS8b50Olpzk
