The M.E./CFS Epidemiology and Genomics Alliance launched their new MEGA website on 30th November, with a triple whammy: poor quality information; no facility to comment on the blogs; and a six day deadline to submit applications to join the Patient Advisory Group of 12 to 15 adults. Here's the first of our blogs in response to their new information - https://opposingmega.wordpress.com/2016/12/02/mega-shambles/ Opposing MEGA remains open to sign at https://www.change.org/p/opposing-mega-a-vote-of-no-confidence-in-mega-research-for-me-cfs but has done its job as a counter-petition, showing that a majority of people reject the petition by MEGA to mainstream research funders - see https://opposingmega.wordpress.com/2016/11/24/countersunk-opposing-mega-has-more-support-than-mega-in-35-days/ ) Thanks again to everyone supporting our message - No more wasting time, money, lives – not in our name.
