Physician Health in the Workplace. Physicians are exposed to a variety of risks in their everyday work. There is an obvious risk, especially in view of the current pandemic, of contracting communicable diseases like COVID-19, HIV and Hepatitis C. The commercialization of healthcare and associated cost-saving measures – particularly in the field of human resources – lead to unhealthy workloads and, correspondingly, an increased risk of suffering from psychological disorders like burnout and depression. Scientific studies reveal a correlation between psychological stress and the quality of patient care. The health of medical personnel must be given high priority in the interest of both patients and those working in the healthcare system. This requires adequate funding with staffing that is appropriate to the patient and the task at hand, thus ensuring humane and high-quality patient care. In addition, physicians must be relieved of performing non-medical tasks, and their resilience must be strengthened through individual and operational measures.
Taming the European Leviathan: Health as Politics. A Research Project. This article outlines the research project „Taming the European Leviathan: The Legacy of Post-War Medicine and the Common Good“. It is funded by a Synergy Grant of the European Research Council and unites European researchers comparing health policies (from drug research to prevention) in West- and East-European countries, e.g., Bulgaria, Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and the United Kingdom. The common goal is to provide a different perspective on post-war Europe, a perspective that emphasizes commonalities rather than differences.
Health Data as a Public Good. Routine health data, which are collected by health insurers and other agencies in the health care system, offer enormous potential for health monitoring and research. Germany has been slow to make such data available for socially beneficial purposes, partly due to concerns about privacy and data protection. Against this background, we discuss some of the most important potential uses of routine health data and call for a broader societal debate about the benefits, risks, and appropriate regulation of routine health data usage.We then review theWestern Australian Data Linkage System as an example of a data infrastructure that is characterized by high levels of stakeholder and patient involvement and a sophisticated method of privacy protection. While Germany does not need to copy this approach, we hope that the experiences of Western Australia and other countries will stimulate and inform the overdue debate about a modern, responsible, and sustainable approach to socially beneficial health data usage in Germany.
Prevention: The Concept of Preventive Risk Reduction, Illustrated by the COVID-19 Pandemic. Risk assessment and risk management based on the precautionary principle are instruments to protect humans and the environment against uncertain threats and risks. At the same time, however, trade-offs must always be made in order to maintain cultural, economic and social objectives and to honor the principle of proportionality. Notwithstanding the need for continuous risk reduction, society must distance itself from the idea that science can predict all dangerous events and developments and exclude them through preventive action. At best, risk analyses are able to identify the possible threats and uncover weaknesses in the system. In addition, risk assessments help us to make better decisions in the conflict of objectives between the secondary consequences of taking risks (such as exposure in the event of a pandemic) and the secondary consequences of the protective measures taken (economic, social, cultural consequences). In this sense, decisions about acceptability of risks or risk reduction measures always reflect a combination of scientific knowledge with balancing judgments.
The World Health Organization (WHO), Pandemics, and COVID-19: How to Proceed With a Multilateral Concept of Global Health? The WHO grew to 194 member states, and with globalization, geopolitical shifts, and internal reorganizations, the lines of influence have become more complex. In 2020, the United States severely endangered multilateralism in health. Recently, the Biden administration has revived US commitment as a major global health player. Yet, the lack of coherence in supporting collective action on global health remains a problem. Global health geopolitics are shifting and China and India have acquired enough power to shape the global health agenda. At the instigation of Germany, health has become a regular topic at Group of Twenty (G20) and G7 meetings – a critical factor during the COVID-19 pandemic. The WHO’s director general frequently states that health is a political choice. Many countries made unfortunate, if not questionable political choices in their responses to COVID-19. But as a matter of fact, they took the wrong turn much earlier when they neglected investments in pandemic preparedness and in the WHO. Countries have the political choice right now to seriously strengthen the WHO, its funding, and its legal power, or to weaken or even destroy one of the most important agencies in the UN system.

Keine Regionalgruppe vor Ort? Dann gründe ich halt eine – fand eine Betroffene mit Lupus erythematodes. Ein Erfahrungsbericht. Im Jahr 2000 bekam ich im Alter von 28 Jahren die Diagnose „Systemischer Lupus erythematodes“ (SLE) – mit Beteiligungen der Haut, des Zentralen Nervensystems, der Niere und des Herzens. Im Krankenhaus bekam ich zwar Informationen zur weiteren Therapie, nicht aber elementare Informationen über die Krankheit. Weil ich noch kein Internet hatte, ging ich in die Bibliothek und fand nach einigem Suchen auch ein medizinisches Nachschlagewerk aus den 60er Jahren. Darin wurde einiges über die Krankheit erklärt, auch, dass meine Lebenserwartung nur bei drei bis fünf Jahren liegen würde.
Images of Health and Disease: the Example of HIV/AIDS. There are two phases in the history of HIV/AIDS in the 1980s and 1990s. In the first of them, which lasted until the mid-1980s, HIV/AIDS was constructed as a disease of the (sexual) other. The second phase began around 1985 when the focus of AIDS prevention programs gradually shifted from „risk groups“ to „risk behavior“. This transformation came along with a reframing of the sexually active individual as self-reliant and socially responsible. Furthermore, the emergence of the risk discourse was accompanied by an iconography of a healthy and athletic „prevention body“. In the 1990s it increasingly replaced the emaciated „AIDS body“ that had dominated in the early years.
Sepsis and the COVID-19 Pandemic: Challenges and Chances for Developing a Better Health System in Germany. Sepsis is the most serious complication of infectious diseases including patients critically illwith COVID-19. In 2017, sepsis was estimated to affect close to 50 million people and to cause or contribute to 11 million deaths, with over 3 million of those deaths being in children or adolescents.The WHO considers that most deaths from sepsis are preventable and therefore urges all member states to integrate sepsis in their national health strategy. However, this is not yet the case for Germany, although – compared to other western industrial countries – sepsis mortality rates in Germany are very high. The COVID-19 pandemic has presented the world with the most serious health threat in living memory, which until July 2021 resulted in more than 4 million deaths and unprecedented social and economic disruption. It has reminded us that infectious diseases still present a major global health threat. In contrast to the poor recognition of sepsis from other infections, the response to the pandemic has also been unprecedented in most countries in terms of instituting effective public health measures, and the global scientific community has come together to produce robust research evidence and novel vaccines in record time. Thus, a positive legacy for the COVID‑19 pandemic in Germany and around the globe would reduce the global burden of sepsis by making pandemic preparedness, infection prevention and control, sepsis and antimicrobial resistance integral parts of national infection control and management strategies.
Controversies Over the Concept of Mental Disorders. Just like persons suffering from somatic diseases, those experiencing mental disorders, maladies, or diseases should be provided with care and protection from certain social demands. Yet, any disease concept should be precise enough to avoid classification of behavior as pathological while it is merely socially undesirable in the current political system. This paper reviews various conflicting concepts of disease, illness and sickness. In addition, it provides a narrower definition of a so-called clinically relevant mental malady. This definition is characterized by a) an impairment of mental functions relevant for human life (the disease aspect of a mental malady) and b) personal harm either due to suffering (the illness aspect) or impaired activities of daily living that severely limit social participation (the sickness aspect). This chapter claims that any definition of disease-relevant mental dysfunctions should be critically reflected regarding its philosophical and anthropological foundation and ethical consequences. Criteria of disease, illness and sickness should no longer be defined by groups of professionals selected by the WHO or other institutions, but instead require public debates that include organizations of patients and relatives.
Patients’ Perspectives on Health. The following chapter presents a number of patient statements on health and disease provided by several German patient associations. In these statements, patients describe their personal experience with health and disease and how they cope with their situations. Some also emphasize what they have done to improve their wellbeing. These first-hand reports offer a glimpse of the factors that support and inhibit individual people in their everyday struggles to create and maintain their own understanding of health.
