Special items are excluded.
Ongoing adverse effects from COVID-19 expected; extent will depend partly on vaccination progress and potential further virus variants.
COVID-19 case numbers expected to decline from spring 2022 onwards; in line with that elective treatments and staff availability are expected to improve.
Guidance does not reflect any potential further containment measures that could have a significant and direct impact on the health care sector without any appropriate compensation.
Headwinds from cost inflation and supply chain challenges are reflected - however no acceleration of effects vs. current environment expected.
FMC's guidance assumptions also apply to FSE guidance.
