Liegenddemo - awareness für ME/CFS

In the organizer's words:

#LiegendDemo - ME/CFS Awareness Demonstration

As part of the international ME/CFS Awareness Days, a so-called "LyingDemo" will take place in Munich. The demonstration draws attention to the serious and often invisible disease myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) as well as long-COVID and post-vac syndromes.

Many of those affected are so seriously ill that they can no longer leave their home or even their bed. At the lying down demo, participants lay down on the floor on behalf of those affected to draw attention to the situation.

They are calling for more education, better medical care and binding research into ME/CFS.

📍 Start: Sendlinger Tor (funeral procession)
📍 Rally: Stachus (Karlsplatz)

With speeches, information stand and actions.
