Vienna ME/CFS clinic to open 2027, triage by urgency, no local priority

Austria's new Competence Center for post-acute infection syndromes (PAIS) in Vienna's 21st district will open mid-2027, led by neurologist Martin Komenda-Lett. The clinic will screen registrations by urgency and adopt a 'maximally inclusive' approach, with no priority for Viennese patients despite expected high demand. This signals a structured national response to long-COVID/ME/CFS care, but capacity and funding details remain unclear.
