May 12 marks the international Myalgic
Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
Awareness Day, on Florence Nightingale’s birthday (as it
is thought she developed ME/CFS after an infection
contracted during the Crimean war). Each year on this day
ANZMES (the Associated New Zealand ME Society) seeks to
provide education and build awareness, as well as advocate
for and support those with ME/CFS and their families. This

also be on those diagnosed with Long COVID. Long COVID will
present new challenges. Many of those challenges have
already been faced by the ME/CFS community.

A new study from Duke and Harvard Universities suggests that if reparations for Black Americans had been made before the pandemic, overall COVID-19 transmission could have been reduced.
The peer-reviewed study looks at the health implications of systemic racism and racial justice interventions. It used the state of Louisiana as a model and concluded that reparation payments could have reduced coronavirus there between 31 to 68 percent.
