A university in Hannover, Germany is planning a study on the effects of apharesis on Long Covid patients with fatigue.

A first study in Mülheim showed an effectiveness of 70 % if I recall correctly. But they didn't have a control group. This new study will be scientifically accurate.

Had to fill in a long form, print it out and send it to them along with all my medical records. No answer yet. I guess they take as long as I do to go over a form.
