Dear @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social it’s not too late to FINALLY cover #GreatestMEdicalScandal 👀🙏

JohnVsJonVsME The race to see who will cover "the greatest medical scandal of the 21st century" -George Monbiot Check out our latest op-ed in The Sick Times about how & why we started #JohnVsJonVsME People with Mya...

Gracias again for this important essay @lauralew105.bsky.social ❤️
Have you written about the history of IACC, specifically ME? (@georgemonbiot.bsky.social calls it #GreatestMEdicalScandal of 21st century).
At @johnvsjonvsme.bsky.social we're trying to get more media to cover it-

Gracias for your voice & clarity, querido @georgemonbiot.bsky.social. Any thoughts on why it’s so hard to get more people to care about #GreatestMEdicalScandal? At @johnvsjonvsme.bsky.social we’ve been trying to get @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social @lastweektonight.com to cover it.

Still dreaming of #GreatestMEdicalScandal & Wessely malfeasance coverage

Still dreaming Jon Stewart will look into Wessely’s malfeasance @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social. The @georgemonbiot.bsky.social thread on #GreatestMEdicalScandal this is responding to is excellent. #JohnVsJonVsME @johnvsjonvsme.bsky.social

Name them in the comments below and tag them and their institutions if they’re on this site! Also like & second proposals you agree with below :). And repost this invitation for reach, please!

We'll be reaching out to @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social to share this post and top guest proposals.

Light blue image with a screenshot of Jon Stewart on The Weekly Show Pod listening attentively. At the top the title 'Guest Proposals for Jon Stewart and Weekly Show Pod on #GreatestMEdicalScandal, M.E., Long Covid. " Where the two guests would go in the show, there's a sillhouette with a question mark and the indication "Tag or name specialists you propose in the comments."

In honor of the big week we’ve had in #ME / #LongCOVID world— @decodemestudy.bsky.social results last week; #KeystoneSymposia on #LongCOVID this week—who would you like to see Jon Stewart interview on @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social to highlight these historic events?

I also propose @ahandvanish.bsky.social and other members of @patientled.bsky.social to discuss #LongCovid and #ME research with Jon Stewart on @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social

Other specialists proposed as guests by #pwME #pwLC on IG (which I second!): Gez Medinger, @binitakane.bsky.social @decodemestudy.bsky.social @longcovidkids.bsky.social @rthm.bsky.social

Other journalists I recommend are @thesicktimes.org founders
@betsyladyzhets.bsky.social @mileswgriffis.bsky.social
❤️

. @openmedf.bsky.social & its centers around the world are leaders in #ME and #LongCovid research & global collaboration. @janetdafoe.bsky.social can speak both about the research & #SevereME caretaking experience (and how many folks around the world have zero support from their healthcare systems).

I also second and strongly encourage inviting David Tuller and @georgemonbiot.bsky.social to discuss #GreatestMEdicalScandal

Seconding also that @meactnet.bsky.social
and their Scientific & Medical Outreach director
@exceedhergrasp1.bsky.social would be great guests to discuss #LongCovid #ME #GreatestMEdicalScandal (including what the current political situation in the U.S. has meant for IACI advocacy and progress)

Seconding all of these proposals enthusiastically! #GreatestMEdicalScandal

Alt text for first tweet: screen shot of Bridget O’Shea’s last tweet, from handle @Bridget_OShea, at 8:29 a.m. on 7/13/25, the day before she died:

I called my mom. I told her I'm afraid I'm going to die. Her response? She hung up. 😫#MECFS

… “Indeed, no one should have the responsibility to know so intimately this daily, hourly, physical torture. The weight of it all is too much to bear.”

From the link above, “the very idea that the NIH, NHS, and numerous health agencies worldwide have largely succeeded in burying such a longstanding humanitarian and societal catastrophe is something I don’t think I’ll ever comprehend….”

Buried Alive by Government “Experts” — Bridget O'Shea At first, I’d been on a plane, in a window seat, grounded and waiting to deboard. I thought this for a long time. Now, though, the scene takes me to the backseat of a car – my parent’s car – on the hi...

Here’s Bridget in her own words on the #GreatestMEdicalScandal. How many more kind and brilliant souls do we have to lose before this gets the compassion, help, NEWS COVERAGE, and treatment patients deserve?

The #GreatestMEdicalScandal has taken another person who should have been in the prime of their brilliant life. She spent so much of her last years howling for better understanding & treatment of this neglected disease. 1/

We’re sending out a #DisabilitySOS to @naomiaklein.bsky.social! Will you help us raise awareness about #GreatestMEdicalScandal & bring #MillionsMissing back to safety (and life)? 🙏🛟 Learn more at johnvsjon.com #JohnVsJonVsME #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #MEAwarenessMonth

@ghostpanther.bsky.social #GreatestMEdicalScandal is right up your alley—coverups by the powers that be, preventing effective treatments/cures, and even a villainous knight! @emilyesfraser.bsky.social does a fantastic job of highlighting some of its worst parts! Please help us fight this stigma! 🙏

I’d love for @vidyakrishnan.bsky.social to look into #GreatestMEdicalScandal bc she’s an amazing health journalist & bc there’s especially limited support for #pwME in South Asia, perhaps Asia in general. @nlizaki.bsky.social can attest to the lack of care in Pakistan 💔.
