forces Since the us Corona in the own four walls, we can dream of spring 2020 and over templates of the past years. Many first times, which are now postponed. Easter with the grandparents, the child, the addiction for the first Time aware of it.
The outbreak presents us again and again the same questions: What can withstand our health care system, how safe the Individual in our society and what we can expect of him.

You trusted that it would not create the Virus in the Rest of the world. Over the years, the risk provision was treated at best with neglect. Decision-makers must decide a lot and in parallel. There are recognition. However, these are the same people who were previously inactive, and the extent of the crisis possible.
The Virus, Germany were downright unprepared
Therefore, the Virus has hit almost unprepared, and Berlin is no less caught cold. In normal operation, it is in the capital, under it, over it and wrong to often. We had even more luck: The country had, first, to implement the requirements for social distance.
