Something about Corona always seems unreal to me. Like how the insanely autistic testing regime of South Korea made reinfection a thing (b/c they kept testing people on the way to recovery), & then the media pushed reinfection until they had willed the concept into reality...

... Or how in the beginning whenever anybody started taking Corona super seriously and mass testing, they found a bunch of cases right away, and people started dying. No sooner do you start testing everyone in nursing homes, than everyone in nursing homes dies from Corona ...

.. As if attention to infections in these populations willed infections into being. This happens everywhere, like a fractal, at every level of detail. Countries super terrified of Corona have awful outbreaks. Jurisdictions that opt out of containment have no problem at all...

... Corona behaves like it does in France in French-speaking Switzerland, like it does in Germany in German-speaking Switzerland. Okay, the Swiss are hugely federal, the cantons have a lot of autonomy. Still, how is that managed, how is that an artefact of diagnostic machinery?

it was obviously widespread even in Bavaria after January, from conversations I can report that family doctors in Bavaria were aware of its presence by February, an unusual abundance of patients with flu-like symptoms who swabbed negative for influenza.

Makes perfect sense, I remember the whole ridicolous search for "patient zero" that was allegedly some italian guy who traveled to germany or viceversa. This theory explains p much all the incongruities and also how the few rebel docs using traditional methods have low mortality
