    The special committee on the COVID-19 pandemic organises two workshops to discuss the state of play of EU’s crisis preparedness and response, and developments related to “long COVID”.

    When: Wednesday, 8 March 2023, 15.00 - 17.00

    Where: European Parliament in Brussels, Spinelli building, room 5G3

    Members of the Special Committee on COVID-19 (COVI) will debate with several experts the state of play of the EU’s crisis preparedness and response system, the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges ahead

    ....

    When: Thursday, 9 March 2023, 10.30 - 12.30

    Where: European Parliament in Brussels, Spinelli building, room 1G3

    COVI members will also meet with experts to discuss key facts and developments related to “long COVID”, and identify regulatory and policy aspects that need to be addressed in order to minimise the impact of long COVID on European citizens and society

    Thankfully, the link with ME/CFS was mentioned a lot by MEPs and the presenters so I hope that it will be included in the final COVI report.

    I think the experts Peter Piot, Dominique Salmon, Clara Lehmann, Carmen Scheibenbogen all stressed that Long Covid is not psychosomatic.
