How the situation is getting better
What the action plan means for patients with Long Covid
Imagine being chronically ill and no longer having to run from one doctor to another to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. Would be nice? Yes. This wish has now also reached the Ministry of Health, which has now presented a corresponding action plan.
Specifically, it is about those affected by post-infectious syndromes such as Long Covid or the particularly severe ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome). In addition to Covid, other pathogens can also trigger such diseases, e.g. the Epstein-Barr virus. The problem with such cases: Getting diagnoses alone is difficult and there is a lack of appropriate contact points or expertise to date. A "National Action Plan on Post-Acute Infectious Syndromes" should bring improvements in the future.
