Well deserved strategic funding - €50 million *per year* for a decade - on ME/CFS and Long Covid research. Spent wisely this could be a game changer. Germany now leads & other countries need to follow. Goal to “decipher the causes and mechanisms and develop new treatments”. #MEcfs #longcovid

2) The decade runs from 2026 to 2036 and and has a total budget of € 500 million, so it will be approximately € 50 million per year.

In comparison, NIH funding for ME/CFS in the US is < $15 million.

Looking forward to this!
