“It wasn’t science it was misogyny” George Monbiot, talking about #MECFS and the influential 1970 McEvedy/Beard paper on Double Down News in 2021. They didn’t interview any patients and concluded an outbreak of ME was mass hysteria because the majority of patients were women.

Just found two studies published in 2020 that debunk McEvedy/Beard: Waters et al. Underhill & Baillod:

We have Freud to thank for the misogynistic Hysteria labels, it continues today under other guises.

@flater831 He’s a breath of fresh air.

…. And we know now why more women have these illnesses than men…. We have two X chromosomes !! #MEcfs #pwME @GeorgeMonbiot

What a great champion for this illness!! 👏 Thank you! @GeorgeMonbiot 💙

And so many across the medical/scientific professions would go on to quote them as if it were gospel.

Byron Hyde Canada has stated believes insurance companies behind this. Making it non medical to avoid appropriate disability payments…

@GeorgeMonbiot ME / CFS is still widely misunderstood. NICE’s updated guidelines (2021) are still not widely disseminated. A very real and disabling illness/disease that deserves greater research and better treatment options.
