Hello together!I have a question for the practising doctors who are now increasingly working with telemedicine and video calls.What are your experiences? Does it work correctly?To what extent is this solution currently applicable in the respective areas?Could someone share their experiences?

Hi Sandra, I hope you are doing good and healthy.

Visiting a doctor via app is becoming increasingly popular across Europe. The corona pandemic has changed a lot in this area. Not only are online health platforms becoming socially acceptable, but the first hospitals are opening up digital outpatient clinics. Under certain circumstances patients…

If understand correctly, the European Union is now considering quite a similar system like Austrias Corona “traffic light” with different color coding:

https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/statement_20_1871

… that’s an interesting development, right?

I am curious how it will differ from the Austrian one.

Hey Maria,

you are right – it is still quite a confusing situation. I would see the corona traffic light like many other measures: a preliminary step, which may not have been thought through completely. After all, this situation is in many ways completely new to all of us (civilians, professionals, organisations..) – so we still have to figure out…

Maria replied to the discussion The nature of the virus in the group Fighting COVID-19

Tue, 08 Sep 2020 08:10:58 +0200

Hi all, from a social point of view, a traffic light is basically a good means of calming people down. However, if it is orange, yellow or red now, it is not really clear what I have to do as a mother or as an older person. And there is still no clear assistance here, which could cause unrest in the population.

Dear Sandra, dear John, thank you for your contributions and interesting discussion. Recently EU has published some guidelines and recommendations aiming at more unified response to COVID-19 by the member states including public health. The information can be retrieved on the website of EUR-Lex: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/content/news/Covid19.html

Thanks John!

As I can see, Austria has already implemented some “COVID Laws” right? That’s very helpful, because without those specific laws we’re having a lot of problems with regional and national competencies, and everytime a region tries to come up with some new regulations most of them are stopped because they’re against individual rights……

Hey Sandra,

This is not necessarily a “big policy”, but in Austria they are trying to establish some kind of guidance-system, based on traffic lights (“Corona ampel” -Corona-traffic light).

It is supposed to be a tool for a uniform, coordinated, and transparent approach by the authorities. It informs the Austrian population about the risk in a…

Dear Johannes and colleagues,

It is truly a challenge to convince the population about isolation in case of being positive and asymptomatic or being a contact of a positive. Undoubtedly, especially in more disfavored areas, it has to be accompanied by the deployment of certain labor and social policies so that these people do not lose their jobs… Read more

Hi Sandra, thank you for your intersting contribution! I certainly think that COVID-19 represents a push for telemedicine adoption.

The COVID-19 crisis made it clear that not every visit to the doctor has to be personal. Many concerns and questions from patients can be resolved digitally more quickly. Health insurance companies have therefore made…

Dear members,

a lot of uncertainty seems to be the result of the mere fact, that we still do not have exact information about the virus and its symptoms.

Some studies suggest, that many infected don’t seem to show any symptoms at all:

“Two thirds of all people who tested positive for sars-CoV-2 in Vienna were asymptomatic – i.e. had no signs of…

Hello!

Also I would like to point out a problem that probably has affected many countries: Due to the sudden COVID-19 outbreak and the hospital collapse, we didn’t have the chance to keep any “clean hospital” meant to receive other pathologies. I think this is a huge mistake and certainly is a lesson to be learned in the event of a new outbreak. A…

Hello Everyone!

I would like to highlight an organisational problem that COVID has made even more obvious: long working hours, especially 24-hour working hours.

In Spain, it has been recently released a study about e-health maturity level.

About telemedicine, the main conclusions are:

– Digital communication between professionals and patients remains at low level. (Level of maturity: 18.9%)

– Tele-monitoring is mostly being used in small-scale pilots (Level of maturity 11,9% – very low). It’s very important…

– Have your organizations accelerated the adoption of new telemedicine services “thanks” to COVID-19?

– Were previously equipped to provide these services?

– Do you think that security and data protection requirements are being properly met?

So by now, their action could be summarized in:

– “High level of testing among a wide sample of the German population”. They have tested not only severe cases, but also young people with mild cases.

– Unlike other countries, they don’t have a centralized lab, so there are a lot of labs that can run tests with quality.
