Guest guest Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Many thanks to Cindee Rice who drew my attention to this important broadcast ME/CFS - A Hidden National Scandal Exposed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This moving broadcast by Meridian TV (Meridian Tonight) is a MUST for physicians, parliamentarians, newspapers, tv stations, charities, lawyers, teachers, patients, their family, friends, etc., etc. It can be found at: http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=hkGq0BH6AHw By opening *luminescentfeeling* on the right site, you can find this excellent article: Dr Kerr & the 'cure' that never was. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr Kerr & the 'cure' that never was. No cure had been made available. Not due to Dr Kerr - but due to the blocking of funds to continue his work. (As has happened to Dr Gow) - another genetic expert from Scotland who is also finding things in this illness that people don't want to hear. I wonder why? Not that they have anything to hide or anything, no...... This is an edited (for time) clip of a Meridian TV news item that appeared on our screens over here in England, UK in 2005. Meridian TV should be applauded for having the bravery to broadcast this - it was NOT broadcasted nationally to protect the Government from shame and being asked questions - obviously. Consequently, only a few people saw it. Even after this ground breaking genetic discovery was broadcast the UK Government still continue to block funding for research and a diagnostic test for ME/CFS. In 2008, not one ME/CFS clinic exists in the UK. All money is still going to psychiatry and the 'Wessely School' - despite M.E being recognised as a neurological illness by the World Health Organisation (W.H.O) since 1969. This flow of money is blocked by the MRC (Medical Research Council) who are influenced by the insurance industry - who have too much to loose to open the flood gates with 100,000's of thousands of patients making disability claims. The truth on ME/CFS is thus kept tightly shut. Doctors, civil servants and the general public -still have no idea that ME can be fatal. All we hear about is 'recovered' CFS patients in the newspaper - who 'recover' by taking anti-depressants and deciding they weren't actually ill after all. As you may know, the 'recovery' rate for ME is around 2%. Meaning 98% of people do not recover. Despite this, the British media rarely print articles on the severely chronically sick and instead focus on the mentally ill. These mentally ill people are 'volunteered' towards the media by bogus CFS charities. These charities are funded by the national lottery (Lotto) and extra government funding - to push a psychiatric agenda. The UK Government, and the BMA (British Medical Association) are thus a disgrace - as are bogus CFS patients, bogus CFS charities and the corrupt and evil Psychiatrists who prey on desperately ill patients. The NHS website in the UK claims 'most' people get better, and that this illness may 'last for months'. This is surely immoral? Promising people with viraly induced brain stem/ cardiac damage/DNA damage a cure with CBT/GE - graded exercise and behavioural therapy!
