Vienna – The statement by the German virologist Christian Drosten that the Covid pandemic is shifting in the direction of “endemic” is something that the virologist Andreas Bergthaler can also gain: The development has entered a “new phase” over the course of the year, in which the danger of System overload by the Sars-CoV-2 pathogen is definitely “massively reduced”. With regard to “Long Covid” and the continued heavy burden on the health system, one cannot speak of an end.
