German / Austrian News Coverage

Here is the German list:

http://www.welt.de/die-welt/wissen/article9165482/Gute-Nacht.html
Utmost idiocy in the well reknown "die Welt". The theadline says at it all: "Good night". An article over sleep disorders and the possible link to a Virus that might cause chronic "tiredness"...

http://www.stern.de/gesundheit/chro...oest-ein-virus-die-krankheit-aus-1596505.html
unexited standard news coverage. Tells a few plain facts, without going any deeper into the matter

http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/medizin/0,1518,713473,00.html
The "Spiegel" earned itself a lot of bad reputation by calling CFS a disease "sent from heaven", giving the undiserved sick so much leisure and social welfare. Just recently they reported how easily CFS patients could be cured, praising GET:
"Little by little distant aims move closer: falling into bed after an exhausting day and waking up the next day, fully recovered, fit, powerful and full of drive"
(http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/medizin/0,1518,682407,00.html)

http://www.sueddeutsche.de/o5m38U/3536365/Virus-Gene-im-Blut.html
..just a very few words

http://www.aerztezeitung.de/medizin...icle/615714/machen-viren-chronisch-muede.html
Question: do viruses cause chronic tiredness??

http://www.aerzteblatt.de/nachricht...hoepfungssyndrom_Viren_stiften_Verwirrung.htm
Acceptable article that goes awefully wrong at the end. They question Dr. Robin Weiss of the imperial college in London and he straightens out the XMRV mystery: it is a "human rumor virus"



and the Austrian list:
?
?
?
(end of list)

No, so far not a single news coverage in the totally corrupted republica delas bananas Austria ;-)

Doesn't look a piece bether in Switzerland. No article.
I wonder what they are doing in Switzerland cause in 2008 federal court decided that CFS and Fibro are purly mind based. If you think you are fine you're getting bether...
I've actually no Idea how the Illness in Switzerland can be accepted after such a decission... :Retro mad:

Hi,

you're right, the older spiegel article was ridiculous, but to be fair: The *current* Spiegel article is okay. The headline reads "Fatigue Syndrome: Growing Suspicion towards Viruses"
