What does #MillionsMissing mean?

Even mild cases of ME/CFS cause significant loss. So people with ME/CFS are "missing" from work, socializing, exercise, etc.

Moderate cases cause more loss so that people can rarely leave the house.

People with severe cases are in bed, rarely able to intereact with anyone.

As ME/CFS gets worse a person's life shrinks more and more.

The attached comic is by Kornelia Paulsen.

Symptom severity ranges from mild to very severe. But even so-called "mild" ME/CFS has an enormous impact what a person can do.

With severe ME/CFS the person is mostly housebound or completely bedbound.
