Response from the Co-Chairs of the Cochrane Governing Board (May 2019)

On 30 April I wrote to the Cochrane Board to ask them to review David Tovey’s response to my complaint about the Exercise for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome reviews.  Their response is below.

8 May 2019

Dear Ms Struthers,

Thank you for your correspondence, which we have carefully considered.  We fully support the Editor-in-Chief and the editorial decisions he has made.  We are content that he has acted, and continues to act, in the best interests of Cochrane and in a manner that best serves the public as a whole. We are in a “period up to the end of May 2019”  during which the review in question is being amended (see note at:https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD003200.pub7/information under “What’s new”, dated 8th March 2019).  We await publication of the amended review.

Yours sincerely,

Martin Burton & Marguerite Koster, Co-Chairs, Cochrane Governing Board
