I thank the witnesses for coming along and giving us information on this particularly difficult situation. It is difficult because it is very hard to treat it. We did manage to find a treatment in the form of a vaccine for Covid but there seems to be no way of preventing long or chronic Covid. What is happening with regard to drugs? Are efforts being made to identify specific drugs for treating long Covid? If they are being used, what is the response? What is the situation regarding long Covid throughout the EU? How does it compare with the situation here?
