Christian Drosten advises to stay cool: fear is superfluous
Christian Drosten at the Moment is the chief explainer of the Nation. As a virologist at the Charité in Berlin, he would not have kept it a few months ago, probably still possible, that day to hang tens of thousands of people on the lips and each of his words literally on the eyes. Then the Coronavirus came and will be here together with the NDR started the Podcast space has conquered the top of the iTunes Charts. Of the eleven most popular episodes, a six-time Professor Drosten looking at. Virologists are the new rock stars, it means it is already recognizing, in the social networks.
The interest in his remarks, is not likely to also flatten this week. The Assembly begins with a series of radical measures to the spread of the Coronavirus curb: borders are sealed off, in many cities prevail event bans. Schools and nurseries remain in almost all of the länder, closed. “I think that’s right,” says Drosten.
Christian Drosten: “This fear is unnecessary”
Now it is even more important that you handle in a relaxed with the Situation and the circumstances, and be cool. It’ll take nothing to say, as of today, everything has to look completely different – “it is just not feasible. Everyone thinks that he is doing something wrong. And in this perception, to make everything wrong to be afraid. And this fear is unnecessary.”
Drugs against Virus
What time is the first Corona drugs on the market?
Although the rate of infection is likely to be higher than the Numbers in Germany suggests – “it’s the same in every country” – but at the same time, we have noticed our outbreak significantly earlier than other countries, Drosten.
The measures are likely to persist
The virologist believes, however, that the company will have to get used to such cuts. “It would be Ideal of course, if everyone would always sit at home, but the day-to-day not at all agree. We see this in countries where the epidemic is more advanced than in Germany.”
There, the public attention was so serious that people stay at home sitting “and only go out to get the bare Essentials to eat and go back inside.” In this Situation, we are in Germany, makes it clear Drosten, but “we must adjust to the fact that such measures have to be kept by that we don’t have to sometime to say soon, from now on, we go outside.”
Keep your distance
The infection risk is low, it means you should create a physical distance to his fellow man. But what does this mean, exactly, asks a presenter Anja Martini. “Whether or not the are now one or two meters distance, is not so important. It is important that you keep generally distance. And one should avoid things, which has been on something of no influence. In the train, it may be that you suddenly find you are at a Station, where an avalanche of people going. Then you can’t change it. You should ask yourself, whether you go with the bike.”
Not only the spatial proximity is an important factor that explains Drosten, but the length of time. “And you meet someone only briefly and it is less than two meters, it’s not so bad,” reassured, the virologist of the Berlin Charité. We should rather internalize the principle and less on specific Numbers.
Drosten believes that Germany has done well
That in view of the current developments in heated debates result in target was not a leader. “This is not a time of accusations and recriminations and without complication,” says Drosten. “It is the time to Orient yourself. You must consult and every day you learn something new. In Germany, we are in the good Situation that we have the time for a consultation process.” One should not apply his time with the error assignments to waste. “This solves nothing.”
We have in Germany is responding too slowly to the Coronavirus, would be the expert to write. “We had very, very few cases of the Munich outbreak was controlled to be credible, the Virus is not yet re-emerged in Germany. The Situation, in the now some say, in hindsight, would carnival be will need to is simply put, there were no cases.”
