Vienna (OTS) – Susanne Schnabl will present the “Report” on Tuesday, June 25, 2024, at 9:05 p.m. on ORF 2 and on ORF ON with the following topics:
SPÖ seeks migration line
After the setback in the EU elections, the SPÖ wants to raise its profile on the issue of asylum and migration. A sensitive issue – after all, the positions are sometimes very different. New trench warfare is feared. It is still unclear whether the SPÖ will find new positions or just refine its communication. Martin Pusch and Stefan Daubrawa examine the question of why the Social Democrats are having such a hard time with this issue.

Overburdened health system
Longer waiting times in doctor’s offices mean that more and more patients are going to hospital outpatient departments, which are then overloaded. Upstream practices or first aid services are intended to ensure that only genuine emergencies come to the outpatient departments. And many positions in the outpatient sector are vacant because doctors are increasingly opting for private practice. The Medical Association therefore wants to make working conditions in the public system more attractive, while the Vienna City Councilor for Health is calling for a ban on hospital doctors taking on secondary employment. Laura Franz and Helga Lazar report.
Scientists against conspiracy theorists
In Austria, Corona is far from over – at least as an election campaign issue. The electoral successes of those parties that have made vaccine skepticism their mission speak for themselves. FPÖ MP Gerald Hauser, author of the controversial book “And the conspiracy theorists were right after all”, is now entering the EU Parliament for the Freedom Party. Sociologist Alexander Bogner from the Academy of Sciences believes that we could be further ahead in dealing with the pandemic if the FPÖ did not use people’s dissatisfaction for its party-political purposes. Infectiologist Florian Thalhammer from the Vienna General Hospital is observing a worrying trend: many of his colleagues are no longer speaking out publicly because they have also been personally threatened and silenced.
