Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will make an assessment of whether myalgic encephalomyelitis should be included in the list of potential long-term complications from covid-19 on the NHS website.
There have been no specific discussions and we have no plans to make such an assessment. The long term effects of COVID-19 and myalgic encephalomyelitis re separate conditions as defined by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.
