Update on the "Teach ME, Treat ME" medical education campaign from #MEAction :

"We tallied up some numbers from our 'Teach ME, Treat ME' campaign to educate clinicians and medical students about ME, and the results are fantastic!
The campaign has been a herculean effort by #MEAction staff and our 16 incredible teams across the U.S and U.K., and we are beyond proud!"
