…Especially people aged 45 and up are at risk.
A new and comprehensive American study with data from all over the world shows: The risk of death from Covid 19 disease is no longer to be played down. People over 45 are particularly at risk.
Will he do it again? Like others can't help it? If the American president returns to the White House - presumably thanks to experimental, extremely expensive antibody therapy - will he compare his Covid-19 illness again with the "common flu" that ultimately also forces many people infected with influenza to bed?
The systematic downplaying of Covid-19 began with the flu comparisons, and similar comparisons - whether heatwave deaths or road traffic victims - continue to fuel the campaigns against corona measures. Again and again one hears the euphemism undisguised, then gossip about the "harmless" flu, as if the tens of thousands of deaths that the influenza viruses fall victim to every year were necessary human sacrifices. Such comparisons can only be scientifically maintained if, like the Frankfurt health department chief René Gottschalk, one takes individual columns of figures from the death statistics and omits crucial contexts. In any case, how dangerous the new coronavirus is cannot be answered in this way, there are no longer two opinions among carefully working scientists.
