Very interesting research. An important correction:

'the condition is sometimes known by its alternative name: post-viral fatigue.'

Post vital-fatigue is not a synonym for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, or ME/CFS or CFS. It is a symptom. This common mistake had trivialised and mischaracterised ME for decades and is already doing so for Long Covid.

  Yes, my thoughts exactly. The article is very good, but the term "post-viral fatigue" is a symptom, not another name for ME/CFS. Fatigue is just one symptom of ME/CFS.
