I am not very techie, so uncertain whether this is a ten-minute-or-so podcast or a radio-broadcast extract. It is all conducted in, for the most part, very clear Austrian-German. The subject matter is the background to the M.E. demonstration in central Vienna.

""Isolation in comes in various forms and it's not primarily just that physical isolation," says Yochai Re'em, MD..."A different yet equally challenging type of isolation is the emotional isolation, where you need more emotional support, connection with other people who can appreciate what it is you are going through without putting their own needs and desires onto you — and that can be hard to find"

Often even within samples of long-term patients who see themselves as having ME/CFS, a percentage don't satisfy ME/CFS criteria for one reason or another at a particular point in time. We are seeing that with @DecodeMEstudy but also in previous Leonard Jason studies
