Vaccination for someone with M.E. or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

I have a friend with chronic M.E. who refuses to get vaccinated against Covid in case the vaccination makes the M.E. worse. (I know Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a silly name for M.E. because it’s about much more than fatigue.)

This sounds like antivax rumour, and I can’t imagine the vaccine would do more harm than getting Covid. Any advice, anyone, please?

I have a rare blood clotting disorder associated with lupus and I have had both mine. The risks do not outweigh the benefits. She needs to get jabbed.
