  4. Just sent a quick thank you! I’ve heard this kind of engagement & positive feedback does make a difference 🤞

    Appreciate The Guardian's Science Weekly coverage of ME last week?

    If so and feel inclined/have the spoons, you can write a thanks to scienceweekly@theguardian.com

    Hopefully hearing positive responses to this coverage may hopefully encourage future coverage
