Absolutely, Putrino Lab. CBT and GET for post-viral diseases like LongCOVID and ME/CFS should be seen as malpractice. In time, the psychosocial label and those driving that agenda will also be proven wrong.

I see much debate about global burden of : lower estimate 65M, upper, 100s of millions. Answer: in many countries people are suffering but nobody's counting so we can only guess. The higher estimate came from us nature.com/articles/s4157…. Logic explained here 1/2:

One fine day Christoph Ströck, one fine day. May researchers convince the establishment that there are diagnostic methods and treatments available. We cannot cling to old theories taught in med school. We need clinicians like Dr Graham Lloyd-Jones Jordan F Vaughn MD David Joffe PhD, FRACP 🇦🇺

This is extremely well done. Worth watching; 30 minute documentary which delves into the microclot story with an excellent explanation of the known science.

Featuring some of my absolute heroes Resia Pretorius Dr Asad Khan FRCP FRACP 🇵🇸🇳🇿🇮🇳🇬🇧#pwLC and Beate Jaeger.

I would be careful to inject platelet rich plasma into nasal cavities. The patient’s own platelets may be significantly inflammatory and even harbour viral components.The patient’s own plasma may contain microclots that carry a significant inflammatory and antibody load Prof Doug Kell CBE #FBPE #FBPA🔶🇪🇺
