The Optimum Health Clinic (OHC), a charity specialising in the research into CFS/ME, launches in conjunction with the think tank 20/20health, ground-breaking research assessing the costs of CFS/ME to the UK economy. This study entitled “CFS/ME: counting the cost” is the first study to assess both the direct and indirect cost of this illness.
