SvenskaLong time no see. I am here again. Writing to you. The corona virus situation in the world is serious. I have paid a lot attention to the (political) development in various regions and countries. There are so many variables to consider and that makes it very complicated. More than three dimensions. It is important to stay calm, because panic would not improve outcome.
Respect is very crucial. Some people still cough right into the face of other people. Spreading evil and illness on purpose. Several countries have introduced wearing face mask. It is not 100% protective, but at least it shows that you think of yourself as much as other fellow beings. The virus was, and probably is informed about this.
This biological terrorist attack will most probably occur again in the future. In a new shape. Early, Emmanuel Macron talked about an invisible enemy. I thought about the existentialist classic “La peste” by Camus. Moreover, a field hospital has been built in Stockholm. I do not understand why they haven’t started to use this hospital immediately, or is that to accept that we have a war with an invisible army infront of us? Are we at war? If that is the case, I think we should accept and go for actions.
Stefan Löfven’s (prime minister of Sweden) huge current challenge is to have the different Ministries (departementen) talking to each other. This is not an easy task, because the government has been built in this way for decades. It is a conservative government where traditions are important. I truly hope that he will act with responsibility because after this pandemic has declined, and we know the result of the virus, the different Ministries could blame each other depending the outcome. Nobody will take the responsibility. Löfven has this duty in his hands.
Rather early I started to watch some scenes from M*A*S*H. As usual, smile helps to move on in life and that boosters the immune system. They mentioned some about Florence Nightingale being promiscuous. True or not, I don’t know. Take care.
