Easter with the coronavirus, Easter 2020 the beginning of the apocalypse
At first I thought it was an administratively imposed hoax, too. Then the number of cases went up, more and more infected and dead. More and more bankruptcies and people on the brink. And, no end in sight !
Easter is longed for as a turning point. For us, because we want more freedom again, for the Americans, because they hope that the numbers with the dead will go down.
But I'm afraid we're all going to be disappointed. Here, after a brief respite, the virus strikes again with brutality. A relaxation of restrictions is a long way off. In Italy, Spain and France triage and euthanasia.
Also in the USA little hope for a flattening of the infection curve. Dead bodies in refrigerated trucks, mass graves are being prepared.
Easter, for Christians a symbol of resurrection, becomes Armageddon, at which mankind believes to fight its last battle against the virus. But, the virus is an unknown enemy. We don't know exactly how it spreads, how it infects us, what to fight it with. We also don't know if it splits up into different variants: the group of harmless viruses that make us think it's just a simple flu. Or the viruses that only kill older people to lull the young to safety and lure them onto the battlefield. Finally, the real killer viruses come into play. They kill without regard to age, sex or health status.
Easter 2020 will not go down in history as a turning point in the fight against the virus, but as the first lost battle of man against the virus.
