Chronic fatigue syndrome wrongly named

It’s not a syndrome, but an infection caused by a class of viruses that until recently, weren’t known to infect humans.

And, appallingly, the name “CFS” may have been devised in part to allow insurers to avoid making payouts for an illness, not a “syndrome.”

Another reminder of the problems with private, for-profit health insurance.
