Did we overcome it all? – Christian Drosten & Georg Mascolo conduct a long-overdue discussion
The pandemic may be over, but we definitely still need to process what happened. Since the virus has become less dangerous, there is waning interest in critically examining the role of politics, science and media in overcoming the pandemic. Why is Germany the only major industrial country in Europe that saw higher excess mortality in the second wave of the coronavirus than in the first? Were the right measures taken?
In their book Alles überstanden? [“Did We Overcome It All?”], Christian Drosten and Georg Mascolo discuss these and other question that are still extremely relevant to this day. Host: Sarah Zerback
