[[File:Mindy kitei.jpg|upright|right]] '''Mindy Kitei''' is an American science reporter, health-book author, and a former editor at ''Philadelphia'' magazine and ''TV Guide''. She writes about news and political issues pertaining to [[ME/CFS]] at her blog, [[CFS Central]] because of "the disinterest of most of the mainstream press in comprehensive CFS coverage."<ref>https://www.blogger.com/profile/12570126270241201680</ref> In Kitei's words:<blockquote>"In 1994, I first wrote about CFS in an investigative article on the experimental AIDS and CFS drug [[Ampligen]] in "The AIDS Drug No One Can Have" for ''Philadelphia'' magazine. Not much has changed in the 16 years since: There are still no approved drugs and no effective treatments for a serious illness that few clinicians and government agencies take seriously. Five of the CFS patients whom I interviewed in 1994 have since died of the disease, including one of my best friends."<ref>https://www.blogger.com/profile/12570126270241201680</ref></blockquote> ==Education== *B.A. from University of Pennsylvania *Master's degree from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University ==Talks and interviews== *2011, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qphC-G2DP3s&feature=youtu.be Science reporter sees friend and other ME patients die: CDC still refuse research and treatment] *2013, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaAsvW8tef4 Mindy Kitei's Public Comment at FDA Drug Development Meeting for ME/CFS] *2014, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuumJZ8hkNk Mindy Kitei's comments at the [[Institute of Medicine]] meeting] *2014, [http://www.cfscentral.com/2014/05/candid-conversation-with-dr-ian-lipkin.html Mindy Kitei's Question and Answer; A Candid Conversation with Dr. Ian Lipkin] ==Online presence== *[https://www.linkedin.com/in/mindy-kitei-89253213 LinkedIn - Mindy Kitei] *[http://www.cfscentral.com/ CFS Central blog] ==Learn more== *1994, "The Aids Drug No One Can Have" an article about [[Ampligen]] by Mindy Kitei<ref>Kitei, M.
