they are There, the Corona-skeptics. You are not a few. It is found in the comment of the online media columns, you can hear your discussions in the S-Bahn the next compartment. All just a Hype. Exaggerated. Media drama. “Stop with this theatre! It Gschiss, sorry huere!”, a write to the latest Situation report from SVP-health Director Natalie Rickli on their Facebook page.
Sorry back, love Kommentierer, but you’re wrong.
The train of thought is understandable. I don’t know anybody personally, who is ill with the Virus. In road transport, more and more people die as by Corona. Even when skiing! And that’s why I have to have my daily limit? Not to the football game? The spring holiday to Italy to paint?
