NICE\u2019s guideline on ME\/CFS (CG53) was published in 2007, many years before the current pandemic and it should not be assumed that the recommendations apply to people with fatigue following COVID19.<\/p>\n<p>The recommendations on graded exercise therapy in CG53 only apply to people with a diagnosis of ME\/CFS as part of specialist care, and CG53 is clear that this should be part of an individualised, person-centred programme of care, with GET only recommended for people with mild to moderate symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>As the guideline is currently being updated, it is possible that these recommendations may change.
