The Count ME Campaign

These are real words from real GPs, recorded this year

“I don’t need to know about ME/CFS or long COVID because I only work in aged care.” – GP – Healthed Brisbane, 30 May 2026

“You don’t need to talk with me about ME/CFS or long COVID because they all make

“I don’t want to see any of those patients — they take too long.” – GP – Healthed Melbourne, 21 March 2026
