This person is in Australia, I think, and we might have a common name
problem here.
A Birch there and a Birch here are likely two very different species.

He is in Innsbruck, AUSTRIA. The birch is undoubtedly Betula pendula, which
is very similar in both assets and susceptibilities to American birches. In
fact, in the northeast US, Betula pendula cultivars are the most sensitive to
birch problems. Dunno if they fare better in Europe. He is about to learn.
