Schweizerische Gesellschaft für ME & CFS
The Schweizerische Gesellschaft für ME & CFS (Swiss Association for ME & CFS) is a non-profit organisation. It was founded in 2019 and is located in Zuich, Switzerland. The Swiss Association is run by dedicated volunteers. [1]
Aims[edit | edit source]
The Swiss Association is committed to ensuring that ME is recognised as a physical illness in Switzerland and that adequate medical, nursing and social care can be guaranteed for those affected. They aim to educate both the general population and health professionals about ME and CFS, inform them about international scientific and health policy news concerning ME and CFS and create awareness for the currently still very difficult situation of those affected.[2]
Events[edit | edit source]
The society started as a loose collective of patients and caregivers who organised a screening of Unrest in Bern and one in Zurich in 2018.[3]
