Thank you so much for much (again!) for keeping those of us who want & need to stay abreast of the current state of affairs, so well informed. IMHO you provide the most comprehensive & clearly written public health updates. We are so lucky that you’ve taken on this critical role. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wow. To find my name in your blog comes as no little surprise. I'm really flattered!
One small correction of a probable loss of context by the Google translator. It's much grimmer. The Wiener Gesundheitsverbund or Vienna Health Association which is the holding of all public hospitals in Vienna actually communicated that ME/CFS *could* easily be treated in private practice. That was their argument when they stopped financing the long covid clinic in the university hospital. It was Prof. Hoffmann (and many others) who strongly opposed in public and in her presentation at the symposium.
As I already mentioned before: Thanks for your blog, a unmissable ressource of everything I might have overlooked in the last seven days.
I'm a big fan of your blog too! Thanks for the correction. I don't speak German so I use Google translate and some of the meaning was lost in translation.
ME/CFS is a very complex and poorly understood disease. People in private practice may not have the same access to the latest findings or the time needed for patient appointments as a university setting.

Hi Wolfgang,

Reading my own sentence I get it why AI might find it difficult to understand the context correctly.
Anyway, google got the basic message right, it just missed that the hospital holding which is one of the largest in all of Europe said the contrary.
BTW: I would never have imagined that someone would read my blog using google translatre. That's really hilarious!
