  • "“Having called this serious disease by an inappropriate and frankly insulting name is one of the factors that kept doctors, friends, family members, even employers from affording it the seriousness it deserves,” she said."

I thought it was the Guardian too when I posted it. Had thought that sw's control of the SMC's control of UK media was finally slipping. But someone pointed out to me that this is Trinidad and Tobago. When will media other than the Daily Mail publish on this? Quite appalling the lack of freedom of the press.
